Also had a nice cappucino and some mate as well. The owner's English is quite good and he's very friendly. Just keep in mind this is not a "hangout" spot during mealtimes. There's not enough seats for that. Buy some food - you'll love it.

We got the Bicerin a couple of times in the city and this one you could taste the coffee the best. It was not overly sweet but special. While we were sitting down at a table we saw 3 different groups of people come in and have their shot of espresso. It definitely is a different kind of atmosphere in a Italy coffee shop. If you want to do as the Italian do, GO HERE!

For our first morning in Genoa, hubby was hoping for what he's used to...eggs, potatoes, and bacon…read moreor sausage. What we soon realized is that breakfast in Italy primarily consists of pastries and coffee. They definitely don't eat heavy breakfast foods like Americans do which is why we had a hard time, at least in a smaller city like Genoa, to find what we were looking for. Pastries it is. TripAdvisor seems to be king in Europe...Yelp is rarely used. Caffetteria Orefici was not listed on Yelp but hubby found them on TripAdvisor. This little cafe is a one-man operated shop with only a few small tables as well as a narrow counter. English is not spoken or understood here so we had to point to what we wanted. Behind the counter were about 5-6 different kinds of pastries, about 2 of each. They looked old and dry so we thought they were just for display. After picking a few items, we were surprised he pulled them out from behind the counter. There was a menu on the wall for drinks. Hubby ordered a cappuccino and being that I'm pregnant, I selected a decaf option, the cappuccino decaffeinato-d'orzo-ginseng-soia. The cappuccinos were delicious and pastries were good. The strawberry croissant with cream is what I ordered for myself and it was the best of all pastries we got. The cream was so good! I believe it may be freshly made. Our 3 pastries and 2 drinks cost €6 which is about $6.50. Such a great deal!
