OK, right. No. I get the naan thing.

I'm genuinely asking why amey considers the tautology inherent in 'naan bread' to be the 'same' as the (mis?)use of the term 'chai latte'.

amey in reply to @fizzy.bleach

chai translates to tea (which in india is by default made with milk) and latte translates to milk

Dont even get me started on Bombay/Mumbai.

How about Bombay/Mumbai?

I suppose you could say, "If you want to order certain drinks at certain coffee chains, learn the gastronomic norms of India, as well as basic Hindi and Italian, people! Then point out a fairly tenuous tautology to the staff!"
