DANA
I never liked affogato. I always thought of it as coffee for a kid. I don't think espresso and vanilla ice cream should come together. They should be eaten and drank separately, enjoyed in spoons or straws. Eating them together just seem… wrong.
But that's before I tasted this new version. Aside from vanilla ice cream, Ivor used an almost-melted chocolate ice cream and the first spoonful was heavenly.
"you like it, don't you, Miss?" – he was sitting across me on the table.
"not bad. It's not that common, though. This may do."
He smiled. After he asked for my order, he asked me if I would like to try something different. He said he's working on something to be added on the menu and he'd like me to be the first one to try. I hesitated. God, I only went here to have a cup of coffee to destress. He asked me again and I don't know what went to my head that I couldn't hesitate from his offer the second time. I nodded and he followed me to this table.
