The province of Milan is an ugly piece of land infested by warehouses of all kinds, its shrinking capital of green fields dotted by large ads. But not all is bad news in this polluted and ignorant suburbia. Some of the best coffees are to be found in the bars of the area.Coffees you can dream of in Rome, Paris, London, Brussels. you name it. World-famous Rancilio coffee machines are produced just around the corner and the guys who buy these machines for their bar look after them in a way that is unthinkable in most big European cities. They know what every knob does to the water and the coffee. More importantly, they know what a badly cleaned machine can do to the taste of coffee. All this care, knowledge and skill translate into a mild tasting 100% arabinca coffee. I personally take it with a thick layer of milk foam on top. It's just sublime!
Fabio makes the best coffee I know of. It is even better than the coffee of "Caffè San Carlo" in Milan (but the staff is odious). The only one that compares to it is in Tokyo, in a place called "Kid Lounge". I visited it in 2003 but did not exist anymore the last time I was there in 2007.
In any case, Fabio's is the best and kindest coffee man I know. His coffee costs 80 cents, a cappuccino is 1,20Euro and the bar is located in the main square of Nerviano, 30km West of Milan.
