This hot dog shop serves token espresso from a home machine. You order at the upper level, with stool and table seating on the lower level where you can watch movies on large, flat screen TV. Their single-group Saeco super-automatic grinds the beans and serves a huge amount of espresso scaldingly hot. It has a decent layer of pale, whitish crema and a sweet aroma. But it tastes like flavored hot water. Quite possibly the thinnest espresso in town? Even drip coffee seems strong by comparison. Served in a paper soup cup, you know that they must call it "expresso" here.
