Starbucks Pike Place Pilgrimage ⭐️💵☕️

As a die-hard Starbucks fan, visiting its Pike Place outlet was a pilgrimage. This original Starbucks outlet opens at 6am and when we arrived at 7am, there was already a short queue forming. By the time we left about half an hour later, the queue had already doubled in length! Plus some of the Starbucks swag (like the Pike Place Starbucks mug) we were eyeing were already sold out! So do come here early if you want to avoid the queues and get the best chance at securing the souvenirs you want! Stepping into the outlet, I felt the charm of its rustic ambiance and bustling atmosphere. We ordered the “Heritage Market Exclusives” - Chilli Cloud Shaken Espresso and Spicy Midnight Mocha - at the recommendation of the barista. It was unique but not spectacular. Nonetheless, sipping the coffee with a Starbucks cup in hand, amidst the chatter of fellow coffee enthusiasts and in this historic location was a moment of pure bliss. #WinHKFlight #winhkflight I want to visit Hong Kong as it offers amazing outdoor adventures (at least better than in 🇸🇬 LOL)! I'm eager to hike the Dragon's Back Trail for stunning coastal views and explore Lantau Island's nature trails. The Lantau Peak trail (鳳凰山), with its unblocked view overlooking the Hong Kong International Airport, is a trail that I plan on tackling if I’m there!
