There was raw sugar on the table, at least! But as it happens, it had all been used by the time I started my drink, for which I can hardly fault my dinner companions. I go for it first, too. And I had to stir it with my regular spoon, which looked comical coming out of a demitasse. But whatever.
I like the irregularly-shaped raw sugar lumps best of all. Especially when there are little tongs! I like little tongs.
You're right about the quality of the espresso being vital, too! I did fail to mention that despite all the other things that the restaurant did wrong, the coffee itself was not bad. A bit bitter, but I recognize that sometimes my tastes are a bit off there.

That icon? Always a distraction.
