Café - My favorite thing in any language


There are six listings for Café in The New Food Lover's Companion. 

Café is French for coffee

Cafe' au lait - French for "coffee with milk". It usually consists of equal portions of scalded milk and coffee.

Café brulot - A traditional New Orleans flaming brew consisting of coffee blended with spices, orange and lemon peel and brandy. Café brulot is generally made in a flameproof bowl and ladled into cups. In French, brulot means "burnt brandy."

Café con leche - Spanish for "coffee with milk."

Café filtre - French term meaning "filtered coffee" and referring to coffee made by pouring very hot water through a filter holding ground coffee. It is traditionally served black, in demitasse cups.

Café mocha - espresso combined with chocolate syrup and a liberal amount of foamy steamed milk. A cafe mocha is usually served in a tall glass mug.
