Why don’t we have a cafe culture in the U.S.? Sure there’s a bar culture and a coffee shop culture, but it’s not the same as the cafe culture in many European countries. Cafe culture is just so casual, and relaxing. It is so enjoyable to have a seat, preferably outside, order a beer with some snacks or lunch, and lazily watch the world go by.

Is it because we think we have too much work to do? We don’t even take vacations!
Good point. We do seem to be more concerned with keeping busy than many places in Europe. I found it hard to slow down and get used to European portion sizes, (or should I say realistic portion sizes), when I first started travelling. I still can’t get used to hot milk in my coffee.
