Sometimes you just want Starbucks

We usually try to go to local coffeeshops, but on Sunday we were in the mood for the familiarity and strong air conditioning of Starbucks.

Everything in Mexican Starbucks is almost exactly the same as in the US. The food is a little different. We each got the poblano, potato and cheese wrap which I don’t think they have in the US. We also got the lemon loaf which I’m happy to report tasted the same as in the US.

The merchandise was the same. It felt so refreshing to have no knowledge of any of it. I had no idea how any of it was produced, shipped or forecasted.

One thing that was different was when they washed the floor while we were sitting in the table on the right. Nothing had spilled it was just their floor washing time. We kept moving to get away from the wet mop and they kept washing right up to each of our tables.

But even with that it was a nice bit of air conditioned Americana.
