I'm in Serbia enjoying my vacation. But the best part of it all, aside from loving the nature & loving Ivan's family is: serbian coffee.
Coffee in Serbia is very similar to turkish coffee, if not the same. It's called "KAFA".
Thanks to my mom who introduced me to coffee at a very young age. I was in grade school when i started drinking coffee for breakfast, and after dinner sometimes. But just instant, nothing grand. And even before Starbucks came to Manila, I was already a fan of cappuccino. And when Starbucks came, I became a consummate coffee addict even more. And then I got sick of Starbucks and shifted to Select's Nescafe Freeze, which later also reached to an obsessive point :p
I enjoyed cruising in Europe for many many reasons but one of them is because they serve the best coffee in the world. Italian cappuccino, the .80 euro kind is probably my favorite. Even the ones you get from vendo machines in the middle of terminals and train stations-- panalo!! Later in Istanbul, I discovered the famous "turkish coffee" and then Ivan told me they have the same kind of coffee. In my head, I said YEESSSSSS!!
Over here, it's a custom to drink it with family and friends everyday. People meet for coffee. I think people live for coffee. Every corner stands a coffee shop. I can live here if only for their coffee.
But some days like yesterday it's more than the usual. Stojanka made it a little more extra special. I cleaned the house and as a reward she prepared chocolate ice cream with coffee. She mixed the two... and voila!!!!
It's now my favorite pick-me-up treat!!! Try it!!
