Well came to Hong Kong and was wanting to purchase the city mug. But because of the looks of the Hong Kong mug, I decided not to get it. I had the hoijicha latte and it was a bit upsetting because it was basically a chai tea latte but without the kick to it.
Later in the day, I came back and I noticed that have quiche and cheesecake. I don't recall seeing quiche and cheesecake at the North America locations. So I got a blueberry cheese cake and salmon asparagus quiche. I had a good laugh with my mom from the Starbucks guy afterward from his English accent. I also ordered the Carmel macchiato. The quiche and cheesecake was really good. The cheesecake flavour is not as strong as the North America kind of cheesecake but I guess they make it to HK local taste. The caramel macchiato was not full to the top and also the espresso flavour is not as strong as the North American one. It tasted a bit like coffee with caramel. But again I think it's tailored to HK local taste.
Decor is clean and nice. It does have the North America Starbucks look to it.
Also unlike other HK restaurants, they don't charge extra if you want cold drinks instead of hot or for an extra cup or even hot water for someone else who just want hot water.
You pay only what you order and I like it that way. read more
