A Different Kind of Brew - Update

My family and I went on vacation to Newfoundland to visit family, and as part of the trip, we were attending a wedding for one of the family members that was in St. Pierre-Miquelon.  For those of you that may not be aware, St. Pierre-Miquelon is a small island off the coast of Newfoundland that is a part of France. 

It has always been on my list of to-do's to visit this part of "Europe" so close to Canada, and going to the wedding was a great opportunity to do that.  I was excited to get a bit of European culture, food, and of course some great coffee!  Now that I really love Cafe Americano, I was looking forward to having my fill. 

The first morning we awoke in St. Pierre, I got ready and headed for the restaurant for a great cup of coffee!  I walked into the restaurant and headed for the counter, all the while thinking about the wonderful taste of a great cup of coffee.  The conversation went like this,
Me- "Do you serve cafe americano?"
Server- "No"
Me- "Cappuccino?  Espresso?"
Server- "No, we only have NORMAL coffee here"

Well, I just had to laugh as I was thinking about my previous post publishing...probably around that exact moment!
