文化的背景

The 'Kaffeepause' is a social institution. It's not just about drinking; it's about the 'Klatsch' (gossip/chat). In Vienna, coffee is an art form. You don't just 'need a coffee'; you need a 'Melange' or an 'Einspänner'. The 'Kafi Lutz' is a traditional Swiss coffee with schnapps, often enjoyed in winter or during carnival. The 'Kaffeekasse' (coffee fund) is a small jar where employees put money to pay for the beans.
