    Absolutely can not let the comments pass.... "sounds Canadian"..... are you kidding me. If a Canadian bumps some one at the grocery store accidentally ..... both people are apologizing each other. That was just uncalled for:-(

    Are you sure she didn't say "Newports"? A particularly disgusting type of cigarette ...:P

    Haha that would be funny :laugh:

    She ordered a coffee with 4 shots of espresso in it 0_O

    it's CLEARLY a joke. it's a play on how Canadians are stereotyped to be so nice.

    what does being American have to do with this?

    did you check her passport?

    she sounds Canadian to me. :huh:

    Absolutely not Canadian! We could never be that loud, rude, arrogant (no offense intended towards my American friend) Did you ever figure out what a longport is?? Long pour maybe??

    Might she have been requesting 'langues du chat"? It's a type of biscuit -- sorry, that'd be 'cookie' in American -- and is pronounced roughly 'longs-do-shah'.

    It would be a 'biscuit' here :wink:

    I've no idea, it was just incredibly surreal...

    This American Lady doesn't have any clue what a Longport is either!

    Which is stronger Espresso or Ristretto?

    Ristretto is a method for running espresso - meaning in Italian "restricted pour". The volume of water that flows through the grounds is restricted, leaving a smaller espresso shot - less than 3/4 of an ounce. A regular shot of espresso is pulled to one ounce or 1 and 1/4 ounce.

    Regular shots of espresso are often perceived as "stronger" although that is a subjective phrase, because of the higher levels of acidity - due to the water flowing through the grounds for a longer duration - pulling more salt compounds from the ground coffee during the espresso extraction or emulsification of sugar/salt compound process.

    There is even another pull called "Lungo" or "long-pour" where the water flows through for a final volume of 1 and 1/2 to 2 ounces. This is very watery, biting, soured espresso (due to high volumes of salt compounds) and is not popular in the states, but can be seen in Italy and other European countries. This would probably be perceived as the "strongest" of the three pours.

    http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Which_is_stronger_Espresso_or_Ristretto

    Not to be confused with a bartender's "long pour."

    She's obviously Australian. Get it right.

    She was wearing a bum bag (fanny pack) :laugh: definitely a yank!

    No one wears those in America.

    It looked like this.

    Absolutely can not let the comments pass.... "sounds Canadian"..... are you kidding me. If a Canadian bumps some one at the grocery store accidentally ..... both people are apologizing each other. That was just uncalled for:-(

    it's CLEARLY a joke. it's a play on how Canadians are stereotyped to be so nice.

    I thought it was a funny joke.. obviously some people have no sense of humor..

    Also this " If a Canadian bumps some one at the grocery store accidentally ..... both people are apologizing each other."

    No that just feeds the stereo type that we are all apologetic and nice, I am Canadian and I know my fair share of rude *kitten*.

    what does being American have to do with this?

    did you check her passport?

    she sounds Canadian to me. :huh:



    note to moderators: this is a clearly JOKE response. done to illustrate the problem with the OP's assumption that somebody "rude" must be American. who's known to be the exact opposite of rude? Canadians. that's why the response is funny.

    :huh: ..... so glad you put that disclaimer on there........ :grumble: :laugh:

    Which is stronger Espresso or Ristretto?

    Ristretto is a method for running espresso - meaning in Italian "restricted pour". The volume of water that flows through the grounds is restricted, leaving a smaller espresso shot - less than 3/4 of an ounce. A regular shot of espresso is pulled to one ounce or 1 and 1/4 ounce.

    Regular shots of espresso are often perceived as "stronger" although that is a subjective phrase, because of the higher levels of acidity - due to the water flowing through the grounds for a longer duration - pulling more salt compounds from the ground coffee during the espresso extraction or emulsification of sugar/salt compound process.

    There is even another pull called "Lungo" or "long-pour" where the water flows through for a final volume of 1 and 1/2 to 2 ounces. This is very watery, biting, soured espresso (due to high volumes of salt compounds) and is not popular in the states, but can be seen in Italy and other European countries. This would probably be perceived as the "strongest" of the three pours.

    Not to be confused with a bartender's "long pour."

    As an Aussie living in Canada, I will assume that this individual was clearly not prepared for the "differences" encountered between "north american" culture and that seen in the UK & to a degree Australia.

    She's obviously Australian. Get it right.

    She was wearing a bum bag (fanny pack) :laugh: definitely a yank!

    Incorrect, Yankees live in the North of the US while fanny pack a purely hillbilly/redneck garment.

    Sounds like a brand of cigarettes that would have been marketed to women in the 80's. Do you think she was a time traveler from the 80's that thinks starbucks is a futuristic cigarette store? Everyone knows that time traveling female smokers from the America of the 80's are rude, especially when they have jet lag and haven't had a cigarette yet.

    She's obviously Australian. Get it right.

    She was wearing a bum bag (fanny pack) :laugh: definitely a yank!

    Incorrect, Yankees live in the North of the US while fanny pack a purely hillbilly/redneck garment.

    Yank - 1. A term used by the British to describe all Americans.

    Sounds like a brand of cigarettes that would have been marketed to women in the 80's. Do you think she was a time traveler from the 80's that thinks starbucks is a futuristic cigarette store? Everyone knows that time traveling female smokers from the America of the 80's are rude, especially when they have jet lag and haven't had a cigarette yet.
    Was she with a guy in a fez and bowtie?

    "Why do some stores carry different menu items than my store?

    That's a good question. There are a few reasons why. Sometimes we try out new products and they are only available in a certain region. Some regions offer different food selections specific to that area. Also, within a region, selection can vary based on store size and location."

    Longports are cigs as well...
