Do you drink the bottom of Greek coffee?
Do you drink the bottom of Greek coffee? The coffee grounds settle in the bottom of the cup and the foam rests on the top of the coffee. The foam is to be enjoyed, the grounds are not to be drunk - slow is the order of the day again here as the grounds need time to settle in the cup before drinking.
Why does Greek coffee taste different?
Because it is boiled, rather than brewed, Greek coffee has a distinctive rich and creamy flavour. Is Greek coffee healthier than other types of coffee? Greek coffee is made from Arabica coffee beans, which are ground to a very fine powder (much finer than the coffee grinds in many other countries around the world).
Do you tip in Greece restaurants?
Restaurant workers in Greece don't expect you to tip, though the restaurant may sometimes charge a service fee. That fee can function as a tip instead, though it may go to the restaurant instead of the server. If you want to see your waiter receive the tip, you're better off leaving coins with the bill.
