At the heart and soul of Greenwich Village stands a tiny, romantic destination known as Caffe Reggio. And at the heart of the Caffe Reggio stands a magnificent espresso machine, burnished, and shiny and promising like an altar to the great god of cocoa beans. The original owner was Domenico Parisi and the machine was made in 1902. Since then, the Caffe Reggio has offered fabulously made espresso and cappuccino in a tranquil, romantic, dark wood 19th century setting with artifacts and artwork from the Caravaggio school, a piece the owner refused to give to any museum, a bench that once belonged to the Medici family with the Florentine crest embellishing it. This is where New Yorkers in the know go for a few moments of grace, warmth and yes cappuccino. The menu includes panini, soups, salads, breakfast.
