how u guys like u coffee? with milk, vanilla or hazelnut taste la?
it all depends what u like u coffee to be..

if black coffee or lattee then i would go for starbucks or san fran coffee..
where else ice blended coffee bean is best...

try latte in dome cafe though it is more expensive but one of the best coffee around..

only black coffee u taste different in defferent starbucks coz its different coffee beans for brew of the day.. just ask the barista what coffee is brew of the day?
unlike americano its espresso with hot water..

besides starbucks using 2 types of equipment:-
1) La marzzoco - old school coffee machine taste stronger & prefer by most barista..
2) verismo - all new sbux is using it.. taste not so strong on ur latte.. extra shot of espresso is recommended.. for tall just said to barista " would u mind to add extra shot for my latte" after u paid obviously..

yea most of the time we'll give extra shot.. but no everyone likes it.. new barista will be a bit hesitant..
just smile n talk nicely to us we'll hav to give u what u want... hehe..

even though i work in starbucks.. i still drink old town white coffee too sweet at times.., kluang station is great too full body, high acidity..
early morning usually go for black coffee for the kick..

coffee house is with full service as in with waiters and kitchen for food..
where else cafe is simple coffee on the go.. pastries/cakes.. self-service..
but in general term its all call cafe..

haha McD coffee is too light for my taste.. very light body..
just another marketing stun from McD..
starbucks, dome, san fran coffee, austin chase are all arabica..

local kopitiam shop are mostly robusta, goreng with sugar n butter thus the sweetness n oily coffee..
but it still my favourite..

starbucks sumatra and kenya is my favourite.. drink it black u can taste the eathy flavours of sumatra..
kenya u can smell the berries flavours..

i recently discover a new coffee house in empire, whisk..
their coffee is strong & the macaron is just wonderful..
