No, the meal is followed by Demitasse, a half-sized cup of strong brewed coffee. Common custom among aspirational Upper Middle Class households eighty years ago. I find it quite pleasant, for the "Demi" ward off that after-dinner sommulence, encouragin lively conersation (or a bright game of cards) whilst not interfering with a good night's sleep.
Ahhhh...ok. I was under the impression that "demitasse" was the half sized cup itself and the coffee in it was either Turkish coffee (qahwah) or espresso.
