Respite from the crowd at the Victoria Market, Melbourne, Australia. Seth Rosenblatt (c) 2005.
I had the strangest sense of deja vu walking through the Vic Market. I’d never been there before. In fact, I’d never been to any place quite like it. It was a familiar yet unique mix of deli, Chinese vegetable market and urban farmer’s market, all rolled into one and topped off with a long black.
That’s a coffee, an Americano, but stronger and more flavorful.
An Americano is not a Long Black, it’s like the long blacks bastard less flavourful brother. !(>.
Somebody’s upset…
…but I’d be ticked, too, if it was near-impossible to get my favorite pour of Java. An Americano is a bit of a red-headed bastard stepchild, though, isn’t it?
