This is my third review on Starbucks, and I must say they never failed to impress me with their service and confectioneries. Especially, Dubai Knowledge Village outlet is definitely been my first choice for warm drinks on cool winter evenings or on a stressed day from uni.
The outlet or rather the kiosk is set up in block 18 with both, indoor and outdoor seating. The aroma of brewing coffee is spread all across the indoor corridors of block 18. So, my recent visit to the DKP Starbucks was to grab the trending Winter Edition latte served in red cups during the peak deadline hour. For a transition from the autumnal drinks to a more festive menu, Starbucks brings out the Chestnut Praline Latte and the Toffee Nut Latte (also available as a Frappucino) Toffee Nut latte brings out the buttery and caramelized nutty taste, it is smooth, decadent and not overwhelming or rich. The chestnut praline latte, something I have not tried before, is a hot beverage which is perfect for cold mornings and snuggling into the softest blankets with hehhe Both the drinks are equally warming and satisfying. It is very flavourful and sets out the mood for this time of the year. Recommended: have both drinks topped with cream and the sprinkles which are sure to be added on your drinks. Additionally, a grande would not be as satisfying as a venti! For the additional AED 2 for the upgrade, it is definitely worth it!! |
