Espresso is just a fancy name for 'coffee' or "cafe" in Italian. It is usually taken after meals and should be consumed as a double shot, with or without milk, and definitely without sugar.
Italians never have a cafe latte or capuccino after meals.

QUOTE(kimhoong @ Apr 7 2008, 04:41 PM) Fancy name only? I believe it is more than that. At least it doesn't look like the typical "coffee" we have in Malaysia. Anyway, this small cup of concentrated coffee gives me good impression mixed with latte? me too  I mixed it with latte (milk) but then I thought what the purpose of getting an espresso if I'm making it into Latte? Anyway, it wasn't bad after all. No offence to your comment though. If you go to Milano, "cafe" = espresso i.e. coffee served in the small cup. The iced latte you get in Starbucks is 1 shot espresso + milk + ice. Enjoy!
