The Hamptons' cappuccino




If you want a great cappuccino, you go to Rome, or Southampton! I am not exaggerating, we had the best cappuccino since Rome, this weekend in Sant Umbroeus in Southampton.We stumbled upon this Italian confetteria, where the baristas have accents, skills and Italian temper. As a matter a fact, M.and I have witnessed an Italian quarrel, waiting for the bill.
The village of Southampton does not only have great coffee, but a lot of charm, good food and fudge, and variety of shopping. And the great beach,of course.
We explored a bit further-East Hampton, Montauk, Bridgehampton.We saw the Montauk Lighthouse and tasted vine at Duck Walk Vineyards.
It was a delightful trip. Beautiful countryside, beaches... No wonder the traffic back to New York was a nightmare. No one ever called New Yorkers dumb.
