VISITOR RATINGS & REVIEWS
Lavazza is located
in the eastern part of Taipei, where cafe are ubiquitous.
Despite its many competitors, Lavazza stands out on account
of its mature style.With over a century of history and culture,
the company's pamphlet says it well: "If you've never
tried Lavazza, you've never had good coffee." During
afternoon teatime, from 2 to 6 pm, blue-ribbon homemade cakes
are offered. The Americano (NT$90), also known as Italian
American style, is 60cc of espresso in a large mug with double
the amount of hot water and milk added to each individual's
preference for a taste similar to American-style coffee, but
creamier. The Cappuccino is one-third espresso, one-third
hot milk, and one-third foam, sprinkled with cocoa powder
or cinnamon; the Cappuccino Royal (NT$120) is flavored with
lemon zest. The Caffe Latte (NT$120), Latte Mocha (NT$120),
and Espresso Melange (NT$100) are all popular choices. --By
