That's probably the most polite barista in Paris. I'd have expected a tirade, complete with arm waving and rude gestures.

    They also seem to operate under the misunderstanding that the French can make coffee. Here in Italy we know that to be false.

    You certainly make a lot of the coffee but all the technology for brewing it comes from Italy. Anyway, there is lots of credit to spread around. It's just that the French don't get any of it.

    Half the French I know have a Bialetti stove top coffee machine. Sure, the french typically buy ground beans and they tend to prefer a dark roast. But they still use Italian technology.
