It's hard because depends on the barista.. if the barista is good the coffee will be good, otherwise not smile.gif

instead of spending so much at starbucks or coffee bean... rotate to other cafe's too! they r similar in prices...

muffins in coffee beans is good?! actually starbucks is much better but that is like last year. i think starbucks have changed baker that their muffins now r smaller compare to years ago...

i like san francisco croissang sandwich but that has shrunk too. sigh.

if u don't like ur drinks in starbucks, u can ask for a remake without charges... but then u will be a energiser bunny if u drink so much...

I've worked as a barista long time ago so my memory abit hazy.. the sizes should be tall, grande, venti. The smallest is the espresso cup. For regular drinks tall is the smallest, venti is the largest.

You usually order by size, drink name and any additional toppings e.g. "grande hot chocolate with whipped cream". Drinks itself are pretty customizable, you can tell them how many pumps you want from the syrup, chips, whipped cream, etc.

8oz short is available but only on request.

difference between these two are,
one is artificial
one is originally made with coffee bean  wink.gif

plus, just drink for the pleasure
like how wedding anniversary yearly celebrated

in this case, me and coffee lah  tongue.gif

Comparing nescafe with proper coffee is like instant noodle with fresh egg noodle.

People who prefer starbucks are mostly for the brand, most genuine coffee connoisseurs go for authentic italian.

Coffee in general is overpriced in Msia due to our currency and exchange rate (the actual commodity price does not change across the globe).

And also combined with the fact that ppl need an AP to import green unroasted beans into Msia, which actually doesnt help to increase competitiveness in the industry.
