The one cup to order

Uma bica (Lisbon's word for an espresso) at the counter, with a pastel de nata

When it's quiet: Early morning, before the terrace fills.

Chiado's 1905 café, where the poet Pessoa drank (his statue sits outside). Order at the bar, standing, for the Lisbon price.

Espresso at home: the Roman shot, dialled in by weight

Espresso at home: the Roman shot, dialled in by weight

10 min including warm-up · 1 double shot. The shot every Roman and Neapolitan bar on the chart lives by. A home machine can pull a very good one once you measure what goes in and what comes out.
