starbucks at boni high street

We were passing on several stalls, and most of them are already closed. Its almost midnight. Its almost monday. Tomorrow it'll be another work day. Back to reality. 

But snap back to the moment, as I sip on my hot caramel macchiato, Starbucks Boni High @B3 didnt fail our expectations. As I observed the place and tried to compare the interiors to the other Starbucks houses as I get in the door, and noticed just three sets of couch inside, I was suddenly cut back when the baristas warmly greeted us a wonderful evening.

Their smiles are just contagious. I was welcomed warmly by a young lady who asked for my order, and my name of course, then she said it would be the guy barista who would be taking my order. The guy barista, who like the young lady, smiled like he had no problem in the world. With me having several things to think about, a warm smile is just so special. It kind of make me feel that there are so many other things to think about, so many beautiful stuffs to be happy with. So he asked for my order really quickly and then in less than 3 minutes, I got my grande hot caramel macchiato.

So where will we sit now? To my left, the set of seats have already been occupied by three, two ladies, and one guy who seem to be like us, trying to pass the sunday night through, preparing themselves for the next days' battle against reality, against the five days that will pass too quickly but will require them all the energy and all the emotions to be productive and happy at the same time. To the right, the first one is still occupied, and the second, oh! Well earlier it was occupied by a barkada. Now we can take it. But their left overs are still there.

In just a snap another barista came from nowhere, and in an instant cleaned up the table, and made it available for us. And now Im here trying to share a beautiful experience. It is a so simple experience I know, but that smile that the baristas gave, the promptness and the initiative they offered, in a very timely manner, added up to the Starbucks ambiance, and its coffee of course, made my [and I guess ours even] experience today worth sharing.

Overall: 10/10.
