zdanlivo jednoduchá otázka, ale nejak si s tým neviem rady. To bude asi tým, že "turecká káva" na Slovensku je niečo úplne iné, ako by cudzinec očakával pod pojmom "Turkish coffee"

Example sentence:
The simplest method is to put the ground coffee in a cup, pour in hot water and let it cool while the grounds sink to the bottom. This is a traditional method for making a cup of coffee that is still used in parts of Indonesia.
This method (known as "mud coffee" in the Middle East owing to an extremely fine grind that results in a mud-like sludge at the bottom of the cup) allows for extremely simple preparation, but the drinker must be careful if they want to avoid drinking grou

: I think it is barbaric as well :) However there is not much else you can do with 'Zlatá směs' or other similar floor-sweepings ...

... at least if somebody orders this they will not be expecting the full-blown Turkish-style coffee - but if they complain the waiter can point to the fact that it is not Turkish, but merely "Turkish" :)

Officially, The Slovak Republic came into existence on January 1, 1993. Except for a brief period during World War II, during which Slovakia was a protectorate state of Nazi Germany
