Is it actually possible to find a good shot?

it is worth mentioning a few places in London that make excellent coffee using Italian coffee brands
the grocer on Elgin/the grocer on Kings [6 Elgin Crescent W11; 184a Kings Rd SW3]
Molinari coffee. Flat whites are on the menu £2.20. Elgin Crescent branch makes the best coffee in the immediate area [main competitors Coffee Plant and gail's Bakery on portobello road]. The Kings road branch is at the same level. I don't know anywhere else in the Kings Road/ South Kensington area that is as good. Tom Tom Coffee House in Belgravia is probably the nearest competitor.
l'angolo [120 College Road NW10]
Manuel coffee [picture of cappuccino attached]. Excellent coffee- a serendipitous find. £1.70
Baker and Spice [muzetti coffee] is bubbling under
any others?

also definitely worth a mention
La Fromagerie on Moxon Street in Marylebone. The coffee they serve is Le Pantiagioni [sp.] and they use a Faema machine. Probably better coffee than L'Angolo, but the milk has a better texture at L'Angolo

Oh well, it's ok as long as everyone says 'Ciao!'
Three Francesconi (CMA) espresso machines - Rossi, San Marco, LaCimbali, Faema and 2 Mazzer Major grinders- CoffeeTech Maggionlino, Hottop, Alpenröst and HW Precision roasters. I decided I needed a bit of a change so I roasted some Monsooned Malabar. That was a change!
