Another shot of the famous pastry and a cup of coffee.
Notice the sugar and cinnamon cups...

Being Portuguese, I come from a society in which having coffee is a habit. Everyone[*] has at least one espresso after lunch. Most people two a day, and a fewer number reach extremes extremes of eight espressos. It starts out as a social habit and grows to the only way to stay awake while working or socialising.

Living in England now, I must refer that English tea is also a abundant source of caffeine, even though not everyone around here seems to be aware of that.

This picture [and this one as well] is of a typical espresso made in Portugal together with a couple of small sweet pasties (only) made in Belem, Lisbon. Cheers,
