actually the ppl who work here are super and customer service is a priority. i dont go as often after buying a tin of matcha and, quite frankly, miss the smiling faces of these kids.
more interesting is the fact that matcha should contain the warning: WARNING CAN CAUSE DISCOLOURATION OF TEETH. i know bc i drank too much matcha and my teeth became discoloured. Luckily, i've seen my hygienist since then. she took care of things and i can smile again.
I ACTUALLY DRINK WAY TOO MUCH COFFEE NOW. If i ever do back to it, i'll drink the matcha in moderation
In summary: DT is great and so are the peeps who work here. I feel bad that i was so harsh in my earlier review. i hope they forgive me.
******MY EARLIER SINGLE-STAR REVIEW ****************
I love the matcha tea though, quite frankly, it is a bit fishy tasting. i wish they would sell the grand cru by the cup but they dont.
anyway, i line up today to buy my cup of incredibly satisfying but a little bit fishy-tasting cup of matcha. i line up and i wait. i wait some more then i go over to naturally yours to buy a chocalete bar, talk to Bob and rejoin the line. Not that i was dying to talk to Bob but i'm not sure how much choice i have in the matter.
to make a long story short, i go back to DT, the line is a bit longer and when i go to another cash register (ignoring the lined-up plebs) i'm completely ignored.
i guess that was ok that i was ignored. and though i wish they would sell grand cru by the cup--that's probably ok too.
what really bothers me is that none of the staff thought to start operating another cash. the lineup scenario is totally unclear unlike Sbucks where it is double or triple registered and incredibly clear. and were these people waiting for hot water and a tea leaves? When they could have matcha??
it felt like i just lost half a lifetime.
