but was the coffee any better than the usual starbucks swill?

i'm referring of course to today's starbucks thieves. after robbing a starbucks near seattle early this morning, they found the cash register a little empty. so they served coffee to customers for half and hour to boost the haul! this is the kind of news item i just love.

but on a more serious note, if there's one thing i adore more than coffee, it's recipes. and this excellent book by rick rodgers not only surveys the storied coffeehouse culture of vienna, budapest, and prague, but also offers recipes for traditional coffeehouse treats like the chocolate-apricot sachertorte. a must!
