Saw plenty of Starbucks
Saw plenty of Starbucks and a Coffee Bean coffee shops in Taipei, which doesn't give one much hope for the quality of the coffee. Frankly, I'd rather have an sweet pseudo-coffee ice-blended drink on a summer day in Taiwan. Looks like there's still hope for the hard-core home-roaster (the only way to go, or so they say) on the island, though. Of course, it involves lots of spiff electronics:
Definitely a candidate in the Best Use of a Variac category.
