In the Dutch region where I grew up, Brabant, the expression “Luste gij koffie?” has a special vibe in it.

It is slang for “Do you like coffee?”.

This expression is the invitation for doing business, discuss things or to get on speaking terms again.

At the moment that this “luste gij koffie” is spoken the treshold for doing business is put really low.

And of course the host offers you a drink. Mostly coffee 😉
