    You could say, "Ok. I apologize for being so rude. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I truly didn't realize. I didn't think about how it looked from someone else's point of view. ... Perhaps I could return the favor and tell you that your approach was unecessarily cold and hostile. I mean, I wasn't TRYING to be rude and simply asking me nicely and maybe explaining why you were asking would have been much more effective. ... So do you want to start over? I could teach you some Spanish and we could go out to lunch and piss off the people at the next table!" :)
