Chai Replacement Therapy

Here is my next installment...and I'll bet you thought I forgot about this, huh?  I didn't forget.  I've just been stuck on The Coffee Bean.  They have really good chai lattes and you know the old adage - if ain't broke, don't fix it.

Well, I decided to step out anyway.  I've had this chai before but it was a few weeks back and on the same day that I had the chai from The Dome so I'm not sure it was fair sampling this chai next to it.  It just so happens there is a shop in Solaris.  I have been passing it up because I have been enamoured by The Coffee Bean.

So today I went back to...



I sat in the coffee shop and read (they were doing jack hammering for the second day in a row in the apartment above me so it was a good excuse to get out).  I opted for the to go cup even though I was sitting there...



The only thing I didn't take a picture of was the chocolate muffin I ate because I wasn't sure if I was going to tell on myself...but I have to tell you it was really good!!  They warmed it up just the right amount so that it melted in my mouth.  I'm very glad I cheated...  =)

The chai wasn't to the standards of The Coffee Bean so it definitely wouldn't measure up to The Dome.  The chai spices where there but it was a little watery and I think they might have used soy milk.  Soy milk is very popular over here since regular milk is hard to come by.

I'm glad I gave it another try just to make sure that I'm doing the right thing by continuing to go to The Coffee Bean for now.  Rest assured, once we move I will have two malls full of other options to try.  But I will also have The Dome in my back yard!!!

See you next post!
