actually i stopped in to the Faema place on my way home from work last week. pretty cool stuff there; i don't have an espresso machine but being in there made me want one! especially one of the old italian chrome jobs with the hand pump. a work of art that makes coffee; what more could you ask for? didn't try their coffee though, it look like mostly that vaccum-packed stuff you can buy at the grocery store.

two thumbs up also for jet fuel and balzacs...
