Melbourne is Australia's coffee capital (due to a large Italian influx in the post-war years) and therefore we studiously avoid all coffee chains and only drink our coffee in cafes. The wonderful Johnny owns a cafe in Flinders Lane called Journal.
The other thing about coffee in Melbourne is that we have our own names for each kind. An espresso is short black, a latte is a flat white, an Americano is a long black and a cappuccino is, um, a cappuccino.
