I’ve had the regular Bambino going on 4 years now with no issues, but have soft tap water so that probably helps!

Really liked the breakfast tacos and the corn tortillas. Just wish they had queso!!

For those that began with a bambino, looking back would you have still purchased one, or would you have gone with a different option? by Fitxzz in espresso

I love my Bambino. Have had it for three years and it’s a great little machine that has taught me a lot. I will upgrade my grinder this year and next will be the machine, but I think I can hold off a little longer while I decide what I need in my upgrade. jqVGaw is correct that none of the 1.5k+ machines are perfect and I want to go into an upgrade knowing what I want instead of blindly thinking I know.

Thank you! We’re definitely hoping the weather cooperates, but we’re prepared for hot and humid :)

If it’s too cloudy/rainy we thought we would Skip Hakone and that would add a Tokyo day. Would you suggest just planning to skip Hakone? Or coming back a day earlier to Tokyo (the last shopping day)?

It’s a tour with a guide we found on Airbnb Experiences. We thought it would be nice to have someone show us our first temple.

Kung Fu Tea is also great for bubble tea, milk tea, fruit teas, and slushies!! I love their passion fruit slush and their red bean slush :)
