To be clear, I am not a coffee snob and I am not a coffee elitist but I do really like coffee and so I'm listing my continually updated favorite coffees and favored coffee shops. #1 coffee shop will shock you.

Favorite coffee brands 

1. Intelligencia, very good coffee with various special notes, available at Whole Foods and Amazon.

2. Lavazza, available at Paris Baguette, some restaurants, and online as K cups etc 

3. Rüdesheimer coffee , The recipe is in the link

   
   
   
   

Favorite coffee shops 

1. WAWA (don't judge me) cafe con leche
2. 
   Paris Baguette, also very nice special croissants and baguettes, all served with the efficiency and charm of the French

3. Starbucks, I have been avoiding for years because of poor service, crowded with yuppies and teens, and their anti-union attitude

4. Dunkin Donuts. I like their drip coffee, but not their espresso:  weil ihr Kaffee, wie das Leben selbst, bitter werden kann

5. McCafe. Again, I am not an elitist and I do like their good coffee. Unlike Starbucks, McDonalds does not fire employees for union organizing activities.
