Café Daniel Moser — Restaurant in Vienna

The bar tender served us chilled drinks on a warm summer’s night. We took it for granted. A shame. But hopefully we will get to experience this again, perhaps only in our...

Diodato served as a courier for Vienna and as an honour received the privilege of serving coffee as the only merchant in the city for 20 years. 15 years later, four Greek owned coffeehouses had the privilege to serve coffee.

The new drink was well received, and coffee houses began to pop up rapidly. In the early period, the various drinks had no names, and customers would select the mixtures from a...
