Amazon.com: Kitchen & Housewares: FrancisFrancis! Dances 9-Piece Porcelain Dinnerware Place Setting, Mint (#)

„This limited-edition set, signed by the artist, is a single place setting for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and is called "Dances." However, Marco Lodola, who created the colorful drawings that appear against the dinnerware's mint-green background, clearly interprets the idea to mean "movement," as can be seen by the set's contents: 12-inch service plate showing couples dancing the fox trot; 10-5/8-inch dinner plate showing male and female bodybuilders flexing; 8-7/8-inch rimmed pasta bowl showing stripteaser (completely) disrobing; 8-1/2-inch dessert plate showing couples dancing; 8-1/8-inch soup bowl showing couple dancing the flamenco; coffee cup (with saucer) showing Carnival in Rio dancer; and demitasse/espresso cup (with saucer) showing bikini-clad women. These mint "Dances" pieces can be mixed and matched with other "Dances" colors: vanilla, peach, and white. The artwork is virtually indestructible, and the dinnerware is dishwasher-safe.“

CoffeeGeek - Saeco Espresso Machines (other) - Dan Nathan's Review (#)

„14 months later (learning curve):  The Rio Vapore still makes pretty darn good espresso.  A grinder upgrade and a non-pressurized pf replacement handle has kept me quite happy with this modest machine.  I would recommend it (or the Starbux Barista twin, on sale) for anyone who wants good coffee but limits their purchase price to $200 approx.“

„So back and forth we went about the Linea and how the electronic keypad monitors the shot through TIME (as he claimed) and not VOLUME (as was my understanding). He also kept trying to steer me towards the Rio espresso machines and asked "Do you know how much a Marzocco costs?" Well, yes I did and he kept on about the time thing.“

BSCA - News (#)

„Some traditional Greek roasters are turning around and launching their own espresso brands, but, still hung up in the Rio/Santos tradition, not all of them have completely understood what hit them. Some of them are at the start of a steep learning curve, while others are well advanced and are still seeking new knowledge.“

„We haven't perfected our espresso blend yet - so we use Cafe D'Arte. It is more expensive than most espresso blends on the market, but by far they have a superior product.“
