Leipsic: Karl Baedeker, Publisher
1893

Pg. XVIII:
_Zucchini_, gherkins.

Pg. XIX:
   _Caffe latte_ is coffee mixed with milk before being served (30-50c.; _cappuccino_, or small cup, cheaper); or _caffe e latte_, _i.e._ with the milk served separately, may be preferred.

(This is about three years earlier than I'd spotted these items in an 1896 edition.  I didn't see them in an 1891 edition.  I'm using the edition in Columbia University's Avery Library, if anyone wants to check.  The NYPL and the LOC didn't have 1893--ed.)
