Ugghh, Starbucks

This morning, out of desperation, I again gave Starbucks a chance and once again I was disappointed by piss-poor espresso. What I got was a watery, crema-free, and burnt tasting and pretty typical of Starbucks.

I literally can't remember the the last time I had even a tolerable espresso for those jokers. In fact I wonder if I have ever had a tolerable espresso from any Starbucks.

So my quest for good espresso in Philadelphia continues....

I remember the last time I had a good espresso at Starbucks. It was at the shop across Connecticut Ave from the National Zoo, one of the last Starbucks in the area that still had the La Mazarocco, and I accidentally happened to get a barista who knew what he was doing.

It was about 3 years ago.
