Last time I went into town, all the little 'mom & pop' coffee shops with their own individualities had been evicted from all the large centres, and replaced by Starbucks.
I asked for a 'cup of coffee' (Aussies KNOW that means Expresso - from a 'cafe' - unless otherwise stated!) - then went thru an endless procedure as to what the contents of my disposable paper cup with disposable paper add on handles would contain...
And it was bland and tasteless and expensive!
But at least I did pick up a HUGE mug for my own use at home, so the experience was not a total waste!
"I wanna proper cup of coffee in proper white porcelain coffee cup!"
