I like a good oatmeal raisin cookie with a half caff 130 degree latte with no foam. Or, how about coffee cake? That is why that call it that, right? Undeniably, chocolate is a great companion to any cup of coffee. Amy really loves chocolate. She got me this coffee mug to make sure that I knew that she loves me more. If you love chocolate as much as Amy, our friends at Chocolate.com - The World's Largest Chocolate MarketplaceI think that anything sweet will be a sure fire winner with coffee. But, what about salty or savory? A slice of New York or Chicago style pizza with an espresso? A California Roll with a double shot americano? They sound like they would go good together, because pizza Italian ~ cappuccino Italian / sushi west coast ~ coffee west coast, but I'm not sure they really go together. Maybe afterwards, but not during. Ever notice that you don't see coffee bars at the movies? Would you want a chi latte with a tub of buttery popcorn? With a movie sized chocolate bar, yes. With an order of nachos, I don't think so. I guess perhaps the Cappuccino Jelly Belly jelly beans would be ok too.
I love coffee just as much as the next coffee lover, but there are just some things that make it more enjoyable than others. Really, I think that nothing goes better with coffee than another cup and a friend to drink it with you. Coffee is a social drink. It brings people together and incites conversation. So, next time you're having coffee grab a brownie and split it with a friend. It doesn't get any better than that.
