The silkiest foam I've ever encountered in a cappuccino. Café Olimpico is a busy coffee shop, but still manages to surpass the rest in speed and delivery. Despite a line-up, they operate quick, taking orders and crafting coffees like true espresso professionals. Never before have I had a cappuccino so melt-in-your-mouth amazing, so soft and aromatic, that I found myself dreaming of it months later. It seems I've developed a crush on a coffee in another city.
I will be in Montreal again shortly and will attempt to go out of my way to return to this Italian cafe, my new love, complete with its old world charm and marvellously manicured moustache-laden baristas. I have yet to find a Toronto equivalent.
