Happy Monday! Even with the knowledge of a short work week for most of us, Monday mornings are still tough to swallow. If a cup of coffee is needed most, it's usually Monday morning. So let's talk coffee...
Remember a couple of months ago when Nescafe Dolce Gusto held the small private event for a few local bloggers and rewarded us with a complimentary Piccolo machine? Well, now they are generously offering one Bite Buff reader the titanium Piccolo.This compact machine fits into any kitchen, even our tiny 1940's kitchen with no counter or storage space. It's relatively easy to use once you try it out a couple of times. You can read about my initial thoughts in my original blog post (linked above). Since then, I've noticed that it stays very clean and we've had fun trying out a few different flavors of coffee. Finding them locally still proves to be difficult, and I curse the K-cups every time I'm shopping, but just plan on using their online ordering.
Interested in winning the machine? Just leave a comment below telling me what your favorite local coffee shop is, or your favorite coffee drink. You can also get a second entry into the giveaway by tweeting: "I want to win a machine from @DolceGustoUS from @BiteBuff at http://tinyurl.com/7mqluca". Make sure that you leave a second comment to be entered twice. I will select a winner on Friday using random.org.
Happy Sipping!

I don't drink much coffee out but I love trying all the different beans offered at City Roast Coffee at the Westside Market and brewing it at home. I'd love to try a Dolce Gusto. Thanks!

The best coffee i have ever had was in an old Algerian Coffee Shop in Old Compton Street in Soho, London. The shop is 123 years old and friendly with old-fashioned wooden shelves to the ceiling. And the staff are knowledgeable offering a choice of over 80 coffees and 120 teas from around the world. Just smelling their coffee direct from a jar and picking your own aroma is priceless. Must go if ever in London.

I love getting my morning coffee at Cork & Bean in the Huntington Building!
I would love to win! I need a small coffee maker for my office and this would be perfect. Thank you for the opportunity to enter!

My favorite coffee is anything I make at home! I used to obsess over Starbucks Soy Chai Lattes, however, I moved to a new office and there is no Starbucks nearby or even near home. My homemade cup has grown on me and saves me oodles of money. I threw the coffee maker out at my office because it gets water all over. I could really use this Piccolo at work!
Solar Roast Coffee in Pueblo Colorado, strong, black and extra large!
Erie Island coffee is the best in the city.
My favorite coffee drink is coffee with Torani caramel syrup. I'm the only one in my house that religiously drinks coffee so this machine would be great in my kitchen!
I'm a big fan of a nice chocochino (1/2 hot chocolate 1.2 coffee)mmmmm...
I also tweeted.. and I could REALLY use this in my lil office.
Thanks
My favorite is the Latte Machiato! It's simply delicious! Tweeted @Phoenixx138.

I always go back to starbucks and get a carmel frapaccino just a force of habit but ow so good!
Yes I agree with the curse of the cup , and yes online is worth it in savings! I will be thrilled if I am lucky enough to win, I currently have old pot that leaks!
Starbucks and my fav is Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha - yummo !!
Blaire Henry commenting here. My favourite coffee drink is anything vanilla or caramel flavoured. I am a fan of starbucks though and have been known to try any of there holiday drinks for something different.
Brew Ha Ha in Niles, MI has some of the best seasonal coffees ever. Cinnamon Spice Latte was the fav last month.
I love Starbucks, but I also visit a artsy coffee shop here called Java Jolt. It doesn't matter which shop I'm in, I always order a marble mocha macchiato.
My favorite local coffee shop is Brielle's Coffee & Tea Room in Independence. Tucked in a shopping plaza, it's a nice alternative in my neighborhood.
just tweeted!
Favorite coffee shop: Arabica on University Circle
Favorite coffee drink: Espresso, and lots of it. If my hands aren't shaking badly enough to spill it, I haven't had enough! :)

I enjoy making coffee at home! This machine would make my mornings so much nicer!
I love Starbucks Salted Caramel Mocha - the salt and chocolate is great.
We brew coffee every morning at home, and occasionally, we'd treat ourselves at our local starbucks. Ice-coffee and vanilla latte have been our favorites. We'd love to have a piccolo at home! It would make our morning coffee so much better!
Right now, my Favorite is a Peppermint Mocha Latte at Hastings. :) I would LOVE to win this machine!! :)
I like starbucks but my favorite local place is Cartel Coffee Lab in Tucson Az. Pretty neat place.
I'm another one that's not all that into coffee. That being said I've been to a couple of tastings now and I'm hooked in the Cafe Dulce coffees and hot chocolates. All I need is a machine.
Seriously into coffee, and when I buy a cup out it's usually at element coffee in Camarillo, CA. Love my dolce gusto, and would love to have a piccolo for work, where the coffee is awful.:(
I haunt Starbucks for their Frappuccino in the summer, and Sheetz (a local convenience store that sells coffee to-die-for) for their cupo'ccino in the winter. I'd be hard pressed to say which was best.
I work at 6AM & there are no local coffee shops open yet & I don't enjoy convenient store coffee so I make mine at home. Would love this machine to make yummy coffee much easier! Thanks
I like the Mocha! :)
And Chochocino too!
Also tried Caffe Lungo! Absolutly love it! ;)
My siste have a birthday in a few weeks!
She wants to buy one, and she is saving money since Dolce Gusto came into our country, so I would love to surprise her with one of these coffe machines!

I really hope that I will get a prize, to make my sis' happy! :D
i love vanilla latte and would love to win
would love winning a dolce gusto
I drink coffee every morning at home and my favorite is just plain, black, STRONG & HOT, coffee. On Tuesdays, Dutch Bros (an Oregon company) has $2 Tuesday, so sometimes I'll splurge on a drink (I especially like White Chocolate Mocha--hot or blended) and I also like to go to the Beanery up in Corvallis because it has a nice, cozy, coffeeshop feel.
Thanks for the giveaway.

I love cafe mocha at starbucks but lately I have been going to the nearest mcdonalds for coffee, there coffee has improved tremendously :)
Love my Starbucks double shot in the summer. Winter is usually lattes. Would love to be able to make drinks at home. Would save money which would make my hubby happy!
Currently my favorite drink is a Chia Eggnog Latte from Starbucks, but at home it the Latte Macchiato with a couple shots of vanilla!
I love coffee, anytime !
Swing's coffee - one of the oldest roasters in DC. And a straight dark roast - delicious!
my favorite coffee beans are a special mix a friend supplies us with ... he does have the best taste in mixing it. hope to win and invite him to use this awesome prize! crossing fingers for luck!!

I love the Iced coffees at most of the Ohio gass stations. They are under $2 and good.
My favorite coffee shop is the Blue Mug in Greeley, Co.
While I adore iced coffee (with a hint of Vanilla), my all time favorite is a Raspberry, White Chocolate Latte!
Hands down Gypsy Bean and Baking Company is the best coffee shop. Their regular coffee is the best around, but if I am feeling particularly feisty, I always go for the Skinny Londoner! Can't be beat!
I enjoy Tim Horton's coffee whenever I'm in Toronto.
I enjoy my coffee @ home while relaxing and waking up,with my wonderful husband.
CC's Coffee in Baton Rouge, Louisiana
I love Lasater's Coffee in Clarksville, Tennessee. The coffee always tastes fresh, service is impeccable, the food choices are nice, and prices aren't too bad either. My husband and I like coffee, and we both like trying new flavors and varieties. A Piccolo would be great to help with our explorations!
Living in rural Maine, I have to travel to get my coffee fix. The place is named dastardly Dick's :) love their latte.
My favorite coffee is on Co. Rte. 125 with the lake view!

I used to live in Euclid and loved Lakeshore Coffee House mochas...not sure if they are still there but the memories live on!
I love a carmel turtle latte at Brewed Awakenings. Mmmmm..!
