& o Caffe Espresso By JENNIFER FULLER for/ilirtaI P/Hitnr V^UI VIII IU. L.VillVI Pinched between Burger King and the Byrnes Building, Caffe Espresso is a sophisticated, cultured, calmer world. Coffee shops are known for being places that foster artistic expression, thus the image of beatniks listening to jazz and reciting poetry. Caffe Espresso is no exception with its cool black tables and warm green walls lined with paintings. Jazz music plays softly in the background while people chat or read the papers and magazines spread in front of them. "Something about drinking coffee promotes thinking," said Tammy Jur, co-owner of Caffe Espresso, located at 1217 College St. Jur and her husband Joe always wanted to open a restaurant. They decided on a coffee shop because i *25 Eye Are your eyes worth coupon in for a $25 eye I Limited to USC student 1 _____ | (fDr. Jeffrey C I 256-2004 Optomc L Interested in a ( Assure you Join the University o Premier PRE-. ir 0Phi Alpha SO | Delta V The Largest Legal Organi ?fee I t satisfies sophis of their popularity in the North, where they used to live. "They're a place to go and socialize," Jur said. "A lot of people go there and read. It's a good alternative from a bar." The menu at Caffe Espresso boasts 35 drink options, and every day there is a different selection of pastries behind the counter. Although they offer Coffee of the Day specials, Jur praised the house brand. "If it's not the best cup in town, it's definitely up there," she said. The most popular items are the cappuccinos, which customers can order iced or flavored with almond, vanilla, orange or hazelnut. A group of graduate English students visiting the cafe for the first time were enjoying the food and atmosphere.
