(Loro) sono L'Italiano

This is the team - minus owner Stefania - from the café, L'Italiano in rue du Luxembourg, that has been my alternative office for more than 10 years. They are a wonderful crew and I will miss the place terribly when I start (I think) at a new office in August - not just for the great coffee and chocolate cake, which are supposedly off-limits for me at the moment anyway, but for the occasional impromptu circus act: today, juggling with packets of paper napkins (à la Tom Cruise in Cocktail), and a can-can demonstration!
