STARBUCKS IN MADRID!!!WHAT A JOKE!
In my opinon the best cup of coffee in the world can be had *cheap* in Madrid and I assure you it is not in Starbucks. By extension the european pasteries are exponentially BETTER than some cupcake/muffin/bagel found in Starbucks.

I don't know, I travel for several reasons, one is to see my family, two is to GET AWAY from the familiar and submerse myself in the european "joie de vivre" .....Starbucks unreal.
