Gray skies, gusty winds: Seattle's going through a rinse cycle. Time to brighten the day with something called a caffè nico at Bellino.
Manager Josh TerLouw picked up the idea from Vivace on Capitol Hill: double shot of espresso, slug of vanilla syrup, touch of orange syrup, big dollop of steamed half-&-half, twist of orange peel. One fragrant whiff and two creamy sips later, you're on your way, envigorated for the afternoon. Can't get that in Kansas, now can we, Toto?
