Some coffee-shops tell a story, created by the people that built it and the ones who just pass or stay for hours, but some cafes have a story intertwined with history. Sometimes they are located in small towns, some other in the most remote provinces, or in the hectic capital cities. One of these coffee-shops is the Caffè Schenardi, in the very heart of Viterbo, in the middle of that Italy that it contributed to build. A wonderful cafe at the appearances, that for some time was also a McDonalds, to soon go back to splendours and lavishness of ancient times, with decadent glasses and mirrors, a perfect harmony of styles, with illuminations that remind an austro-hungarian or Gattopardo style dream, with a grand piano. A contemporary cafè open also to normal citizens, as of glorious tradition.
