Tom Hanks Sleepless In Seattle Quotes

There is a quote in Sleepless in Seattle that I need help with please?
It’s where tom hanks and his friend are at a bar and his friend tells him about “tiara massue”????? or something like that. Tom Hanks wants to know what it means and his friend said you will find out. well, to this day I STILL DON’T KNOW! it is driving me nuts lol
help please!
hmmm that is funny cause i was thinking in sexual reference lol
i was way off! so, no.. you did not give a lame answer. you were right i guess. gonna let this question sit for a lil while though and see if other’s have something different to add
It’s funny, because I always just assumed the reference was to something sexual. Of course I knew about the dessert so it didn’t seem to make any sense. I guess the dessert was not “Mainstream” or very well known at that time. I did a little research and found this.
And, of course, there is now tiramisu…
Hanks: What is tiramisu?
Reiner: You’ll find out.
Hanks: Well, what is it?
Reiner: You’ll see!
Hanks: You better tell me. Some woman is gonna want me to do it to her and I’m not gonna know what it is.
The screenwriter Nora Ephron has since said about that dialogue: “It hardly seems possible there was a time when all of America didn’t know what tiramisu was.
“My dream was that line would play for the people who knew what it was and in a different way for the people who didn’t know what it was.”
Most of the 2 million Australians who saw Sleepless in Seattle would have got Ephron’s joke because tiramisu had already been spreading across this continent for 14 years.
