On a side note i remember one great evening i had in Budapest some 30 years ago, i went up the hill to some nice old looking looking structure, there was a small coffee shop there i spend few hours sipping tea and looking at Danube. It was not blue unfortuately, Strauss was colourising it (hah), unless we counted the huge blue neon commercial reflecting in the water.
The other most significant sight was group of Romani men trying to make tourists play shell game, with various effect, nobody got angry though.
Now in the same place there is some gentrified resteurant where i couldn’t probably afford breathing.
Your english is fine. It’s a ridiculous language that has weird rules, and most of the natural speakers who only understand english are not very good at it. It’s like javascript in that regard.
(like 99%of Italy survives off of coffee)
Isn’t coffee enjoyed as an after dinner drink in Italy to aid with digestion, as opposed to the burger use as a morning upper?

There are ppl that drink it only in some occasions (like u said, after dinner) and there are seriously addicted people like my parents that drink like 5 or more coffees throught the day, it’s mostly a dinner/lunch beverage but we drink it in the morning too, with a “cornetto” (basically a croissant or a brioche)
edit, also agree on the english part, im “priviledged” into being born in a family of english professors (still ESL) and got on the english internet at a young age, guess my english is decent after all.
Can’t say I’ve heard of it. We did have swindlers doing shell game, but I think those got cracked down on
Good thing they stopped it, the police in the tourist areas over here only cares about private property damage and drinking coffee

What’s worse, scam or gentrification?
Gentrification, it’s very hard to reverse.
Please tell me I misunderstood you and drinking coffee isn’t illegal in Italy?
Oh sry maybe it’s my English, I’ll rephrase it, cops only do 2 things here: enforce private property and drink coffee
