BigStewMan Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I'll think I'll order a double espresso: hey buddy, your choice of coffee is better than your choice of beer. when i was in the coast guard, we boarded foreign flagged vessels. they'd often offer us something to drink. i tasted some real nasty expresso; but, never served by the likes that you pictured for us.

customsteve01 Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I have made seveal trips to Brazil and at the manufacturing facility they put out these big 2 to 3 gallon despensors with coffee in them and these little bitty cups (expresso size). What they are serving is not expresso but a really strong coffee with tons of sugar in it. After about 3 of those little cups your really buzzing. I would bet someone in here knows what I'm talking about. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fini Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I have decided to start my own coffee shop based on this business model. http://www.cowgirlsespresso.com/ The only problem is I don't want to have to get waxed to look that good in my thong. I don't see how this could go wrong. I guess you'd call them semi-bare-istas... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I am out of coffee. I think tomorrow some more will show up courtesy of my wife. Oh man I hope so. Otherwise i will have to go to a store and choose some, instead of my usual sources. Don't worry, I'm still OK, for now. TB, as someone who seems to be a student of history I find it a little strange reading your rant i.e. "coffee is coffee." You must recall the importance of coffee houses in Vienna as a meeting place conducive to the exchange of ideas. Do you think that they drank swill?
