Coffee in Chicago

So, I am in Chicago again (just for a week). Yesterday afternoon I went “downtown”, ie. to the city, for some shopping. I also wanted to get a coffee and I insisted to find one served in a real china cup.
It sounds like a normal request for non-North Americans. However, it proved to be quite difficult, albeit entertaining. Finally I saw a tea shop, Argo Tea, where I could spot some china cups and Illy coffee at the coffee machine. I went inside to order a cappuccino and asked for a real cup. My coffee was called “cappuccino 4 here”, as opposed to a coffee “to go”. There were many people around me sitting at tables not about “to go” anywhere, but they all had cardboard cups. My coffee came in a mug, not cup, and without saucer or spoon… Well better than cardboard. It was the only one in sight. And if you also wonder if the coffee was any good, no surprises here, it was pretty crap.
Good news are, however: Later in the day I walked past a Lavazza shop where I only saw real cups, and also saucers and spoons. Unfortunately I did not want another coffee. Hopefully I will get a chance to try in the next few days.
