The sell caffè latte also in the Netherlands it is just an expresso with a lot of warm milk and is disgusting. It is for people who don’t like coffee. It is ‘coffee’ for women ;-).

As with so very many topics here on RBT, people have various
tastes. Which is fine (until mandatory!).

Why anyone would add milk to a perfectly good espresso, or
even coffee, is beyond me.

But hey, ordering a latte will get you coffee with milk.

You can drink it, you can toss it out and order an actual
espresso or coffee as you wish. And decide differently every
morning!

It may in fact be available all over france - I don't know, I haven't been to france since the late 70's. None of that change's the fact that Latte is the italian version of coffee with milk, including any alleged fluency you may have had in the French language. No, you committed yet another faux pas simply due to your blathering ignorance (hey tommy, did you know that 'faux pas' is slavic for 'tom kunich is an ass'?)

Of course that was before I became lactose intolerant. It happens suddenly.

Tell us again how PWM is used to test cables, TDR is _not_ used to test fiber optic cables, and light lines is a common term for fiber optics? And I never claimed to be any sort of aficionado of cafe drinks.

> Or do you also have a diploma in that as well?

You might want to give that a try, serving coffee all you're qualified for based on your ridiculously ignorant engineering claims.

You're obviously impressed with the anonymous catrike rider, which is understandable since he's several levels of intellect and accomplishment above you despite his willful floriduh dumbass magatard ignorance. Suffice it to say you're in the minority here.

While I like black coffee once in awhile I like to have a Vietnamese Coffee.. I believe that they put evaporated canned milk and some sugar in it. That was probably what I was thinking about since they do something to evaporated milk so that I don't have any lactose problems.

But 99% of my coffee is strong and black. I suppose that I drink so much coffee that caffeine has no effect on me.

Who are you kidding Flunky? You pretend to be an expert at everything. Since I could read French when I went to France a couple of times and all of the menu's in cafe's had cafe latte on them it is French in case you don't understand the usage of language.

Since most of the coffee bars I go into including Peet's and Starbucks have Cafe Latte on the menu, it is also English you stupid ass.

Tell me all about fiber optics as if you had an idea of what they were or had the slightest clue of how to test ANYTHING. Stop pretending that you're an engineer because that ship has sailed.

Try using some lactose free powdered milk (for adults):

Tom, you went in a coffee bar, you ordered a cafe latte and as you are saying now you know what this means because you can read and understand ‘French’ and you told us that you are lactose intolerant why the hell did you ordered a cafe latte? None of my business but you mentioned it which you didn’t had to. So don’t be surprised we scratch our head.

And I've told you before, my memory is screwed up from my concussion. That was 25 miles into a 55 mile ride with a lot of noise around me. I guess that you're not bothered by loud noise, a crowd and being in a line where you're being rushed along but I am I expect I thought I was getting a cafe mocha.

Lait is French for milk but I bought Cafe' Lattes all over France including the day before the Tour ended in Paris. I even have a painting of the cafe where I bought one which is right across the footbridge over the Seine from the Champs.
>> > It may in fact be available all over france - I don't know, I haven't been to france since the late 70's. None of that change's the fact that Latte is the italian version of coffee with milk, including any alleged fluency you may have had in the French language. No, you committed yet another faux pas simply due to your blathering ignorance (hey tommy, did you know that 'faux pas' is slavic for 'tom kunich is an ass'?)

None of my business but you mentioned it which you didn’t had to. So don’t be surprised we scratch our head.

Maybe he got confused :-) after all "latte" is not the French word for
"milk" which is "lait", I think. "Latte" is, I believe Italian.
