Celebrities and Coffee French Emperor Napoleon and the Cafe

Celebrity-French Emperor Napoleon

On the eve of the French Revolution, a short, fleshy-faced, stocky young officer appeared at the Procobo Cafe in Paris. When the officer checked out after drinking coffee, he found that he didn't have enough money with him, so he awkwardly mortgaged the cap he was wearing to the man. Had it not been for this little episode, the cafe would have lost an earth-shaking name in its memory-the celebrity French emperor Napoleon. It is said that celebrity Napoleon not only has a penchant for drinking coffee, but also likes playing chess so much that he often goes to a regent cafe in Paris featuring a game of chess. Although he likes to play chess, but the chess skill is general, the attack is reckless, often defeated by opponents, so he is very angry, he complained: "this thing is not rigorous enough as a science, but it is too difficult as a game." Today's Regent Cafe still retains the copper-edged chess table used by the celebrity Napoleon.
