Starbucks - Kurunjang

Not necessarily for the drinks, but I do come here often for an Iced Americano. Today I only had $4.50 on me, just enough to cover my coffee, but whilst the barista was attempting to explain the different roasts to me, I fumbled an dropped $2. This was my fault, but the barista was kind enough to give me a redeemable slip for any free beverage of my choice next time. A thank you is indeed owed to the barista that worked today.

Frappachino Mocha First time having Starbucks in Melbourne (previously tried in Sydney) and it was actually one of the best mocha's I've ever had.<br/ <br/ Tasted the chocolate at first and then the coffee taste! Wasn't too strong and wasn't too sweet. <br/ <br/ Since it was my first time, I had a 50% off voucher and $3.15 for a Grande Frappachino Mocha was great and will be back on Wednesday for another one.

I take an annual trip into Starbucks to sample their Christmas coffees. It’s probably the only time I can ever feel like navigating all the menu options. This year the sun was beating down so I had the peppermint mocha Frappuccino $6.50) in a tall size. Hit the spot, not too sweet, could have done with a lot more peppermint. The few shards wasn’t quite fooling anyone. Ignoring the coffee element, a nice little icy drink to knock the temperatures down a notch so no complaints here. Service is also a plus.

One thing I like about starbucks is that it is always consistent. And always good. Regardless of the price, it never disappoints. Service is always friendly and quick. I tried the new iced brew, similar to the iced americano but brewed for 14 or somewhat hours. Pretty strong, but just how I like my coffee.

Quick service with a smile, that is how I would sum up this Starbucks.  It is small and doesn't have anywhere to sit but the efficient service makes up for it.
