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.
Pwffft Italy know about coffee?
Signed, A Brazilian
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.

That's true, and you should know I do coffee drip. So I'm not into that tech, which means I'm doubling down
Honestly not trolling today
Filtered coffee for the win
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.
To be fair, most of the dishes people like from France are imported by some king or another. Traditional French food kinda sucks, unless you really like stew.
Guillotine!
