This could be a flat white coffee, since in my experience it is basically a cappacino without much froth.

Flat white (part 2)
In my search for an explanation for the expression "flat white coffee", I was talking today to an American woman who lives in Italy. She says some people in Italy ask for coffee "sensa schuma" (if I have the spelling right), which means "without foam", since they think the froth affect proper digestion.

Ciao Paul, parlare Italiano ? Senza schiama is no foam at all. Latte macchiato (milk with a dot of espresso). Caffe macchiato is an espresso with a little bit of milk. Another Italian coffee confusion is a caffe latte, etc. Best is to book another pelgrimage trip to Rome. Salud.
