Fair enough. I've never been, don't much like coffee, and I can't say I ever plan to go there. They don't sound like the most pleasant of places to relax in.
Even if you like coffee, they make absolute shit coffee. Go to a local coffee place instead. I like my Vietnamese coffee, so any Vietnamese coffee place will give me much better cup.
i wish the vietnamese places here did sugar free. every time i ask, they act like i grew a new eye right in front of them; but sugar might as well be poison for a diabetic old fart like me.
The defining feature of Vietnamese coffee is sweetened, condensed milk. Personally I don't think I've seen sugar-free condensed milk. Not sure how you could make it.
it's everywhere except vietnamese coffee places.
I guess coconut milk would work. For dairy milk though unsweetened≠sugar free. Looks like there are plenty of unsweetened condensed milks, but I don't see any that are sugar free. Gotta get rid of the lactose for that.
Oh, the starbucks "thing" isn't even coffee. You're not losing anything by not going.
