| - I was shopping for chocolate today for my mother, she wanted some packages to give to her friends. I didn't have a chocolate craving but after all this shopping I could feel my sweet tooth aching plus was in dire need of a coffee. But I didn't feel like finding parking or let alone getting out of my car, it was COLD today.
But there it was... streamlined and gleaming in the distance, a Starbucks drive thru. Wait a minute did these exist, I am naive, I had to close my eyes and reopen them. Yes! In the Sundance area is a Starbucks drive thru, it sits neighbouring a Jugo Juice and Chachis cafe. It is an ultra sleek, modern building, extremely shiny and new.
I thought on a simple latte but then decided on an Espresso Truffle Latte, to pair both of my cravings. The process of ordering was pretty simple and the girl there was very friendly. She told me that with my receipt if I logged on to their website and gave feedback I was eligible for another free drink there. Nice.
The Espresso Truffle Latte was amazing, for a mere 4.15 (sarcasm) much like a very exquisite hot chocolate of the richest Belgium kind. So comforting, you feel like putting on your PJs sitting by the fireplace and roasting marshmallows.
For that person on the go in the Sundance area and didn't get a chance to eat before work, get your regular breakfast cravings of pastries, loaves, muffins, and cakes. Breakfast sandwiches, or spinach feta wraps and of course your morning kick start coffee.
So easy and oh so convenient, I still have problems with how much you have to pay at Starbucks, but I always know that going in.
Starbucks drive thru at Sundance, newer options orchestrated by Starbucks, I believe with two other drive thru locations in Calgary.
