Rumbly in My Tumbly

Could you get this at your local Starbucks?

Chances are probably not! This picture is from a catering company in Seattle. I think coffee art like this is a great way to draw and hook customers. In my mind I view Starbucks as the fast food version of coffee. Like McDonalds is to hamburgers. Not that it isn’t good, it just lacks that “extra mile”. I love the cafes where you can sit with your friends on comfortable couches and get served your drink in an actual mug instead of a paper cup. I do see the highlights of the Starbucks chain though. There’s one in almost every city you may visit so it’s easy to figure out what you like. But from many of my past coffee experiences, I find the products of privately owned cafes to have a better taste and overall atmosphere than that of Starbucks. You may disagree, but you can’t deny that the photo is pretty cool!
