漫游世界咖啡圣地

by Christine Sarkis

Vienna, Austria 奧地利維也納

Many cities are proud of their cafe culture, but only Vienna can claim that its has UNESCO status. In 2011, Viennese Coffee House Culture received the organizations rank of Intangible[無形的] Cultural Heritage[遺產(chǎn)]. Since the 17th century, cafes full of marble[大理石] tables and iconic Thonet chairs have set the scene for savoring[品味] a cup. With more than 20 coffee drinks to choose from at most shops, theres a science to coffee in Vienna, but waiters are patient and willing to walk curious first-timers through the options[選擇].

許多城市都以其咖啡館文化為榮，但只有維也納的咖啡館文化在聯(lián)合國教科文組織擁有一席之地。2011年，維也納咖啡館文化入選該組織的非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)。自17世紀(jì)以來，擺滿大理石桌和標(biāo)志性桑納椅的咖啡廳一直是本地品嘗咖啡的經(jīng)典背景。在維也納，喝咖啡可是一門學(xué)問——大多數(shù)咖啡店都有超過二十種咖啡可供選擇，幸好服務(wù)員都很有耐性，樂于向初次品嘗的好奇食客逐一講解。

Seattle, USA 美國西雅圖

Having tons of energy and can easily be got, coffee has replaced the sun in cloudy Seattle. And love it or hate it, Starbucks is only a small part of the hometown coffee scene. Taste your way through local roasters[烘烤器] at independent cafes around the city, and see why Seattle walked away with[順手拿走] top honors on Travel + Leisures注1 list of the best coffee cities in the U.S. And later, as youre lying in bed trying to fall asleep, think about this: the city also ranked as the most caffeinated[為……添加咖啡因] city in the U.S.

在天氣陰沉的西雅圖，飽含能量而又隨手可得的咖啡已經(jīng)取代了太陽的地位。無論你喜歡它還是討厭它，星巴克在它的故鄉(xiāng)西雅圖只是咖啡畫卷中的一小部分。嘗遍這座城市里的獨(dú)立咖啡館，你就會(huì)明白西雅圖何以奪得《悅旅》雜志的“美國最佳咖啡城市”榜桂冠。之后當(dāng)你躺在床上試圖入睡時(shí)，不妨順便想想這個(gè)：這座城市也被列為美國咖啡因含量最高的城市。

Havana, Cuba 古巴哈瓦那

In Cuba, coffee is basically its own food group. A vital[必需的] part of each day, steaming little cups of Cafe Cubano (espresso[濃咖啡] mixed with sugar as it brews[泡，煮]) or Coradito (espresso topped with steamed milk) mark the morning, signal the end of a meal, and are a perfect excuse to stop and linger[閑蕩] with a friend—new or old. To drink coffee in Havana is to join the rhythm[節(jié)奏] of the city, and after a drop in Cuban coffee production, the country is now rebuilding its growing economy to meet the demand[需求] of its people.

在古巴，咖啡在食物分類上可謂自成一派?？Х纫呀?jīng)成為（當(dāng)?shù)厝耍┤粘Ｉ畹闹匾M成部分。熱氣騰騰的小杯古巴咖啡（在烹煮時(shí)加入糖的特濃咖啡）或科拉蒂多咖啡（頂上加蒸奶的濃咖啡）既可以是早晨的標(biāo)志，也可以是一頓飯結(jié)束的信號，還可以是與新朋舊友偷閑聊天的完美借口。在哈瓦那，喝了咖啡，也就融入了這座城市的節(jié)拍。古巴的咖啡產(chǎn)量一度下滑，現(xiàn)在該國正在重建其咖啡種植經(jīng)濟(jì)，以滿足人民的需求。

Melbourne, Australia 澳大利亞墨爾本

Melbourne is Australias coffee capital, and we suspect its competing for the world title as well. It may be a long way to travel for a cup of coffee, but with more and more people calling Melbournes coffee the best, its also an unbeatable[無以倫比的] way to fight jet lag[時(shí)差感]. A proud history of independent cafes and innovative brewing techniques makes it worth the journey.
