If you ever go to Starbucks...

If you ever go to Starbucks, ask for the "short cappuccino". According to this BBC article, it is a better coffee and it is not advertised or put on the menu because Starbucks does not make as much money as the other items on the menu. Try it out and tell me what you think.

  2. If you intend on making Starbucks gain as little money, avoid going to it in the first place! :P

  3. The coffee at any latino restaurant is much better than Starbucks. However when I want something different that's where I head to. I'm addicted to it.

    3baid: I know but its the BBC, you know how brits like saving money.

    mia: The best coffee I ever had was at a coffee mill in Kuwait, those places sell assorted kinds of coffee beans and grind it for you. I walked in and the owner was sitting with a few friends having an espresso so he invited me. I never had a better coffee.

    1001: really? is it that good? I will go and ask for some also.

  7. q8tech: well 1001 said she just ordered it, unless 1001 is travelling. From what I know about starbucks, they are very process oriented and all the stores all over the world are the same.

  8. No Im in Kuwait and Starbucks mal likwait iyanin and frankly it's cleaner and more organised and more comfortable than any Starbucks I can remember being in abroad PLUS their sandwiches are amazing. (Try grilled Turkey Panini or Grilled Steak Panini, only offered in the Starbucks behind the Church and the one at the Airport I think.)
