老外眼中的台灣大小事 2016/08/25

編按：星巴克是個全球知名的咖啡連鎖店，這次讓不要鬧工作室來帶大家聽聽各國朋友對自己國家的星巴克有什麼看法吧！（*咖啡由「不要鬧工作室」自己買）

1.美國

I say that Starbucks in Taiwan, versus Starbucks in America. Hard to notice any differences at all.
我覺得台灣跟美國的星巴克基本上一樣，看不出差別

廣告-請繼續往下閱讀

Both places I really don’t go often but if I’m out about and really want a cup of coffee. Maybe I’ll consider it.
兩國的星巴克我都不常去，但如果真的沒得選，我才會考慮

2.韓國

In Korea we have more smoothie menus
在韓國的星巴克，冰沙種類比較多

Koreans really like to put more chocolate chips on their drinks.
韓國人很喜歡在他們飲料上加巧克力薄片

廣告-請繼續往下閱讀

The most popular drink is Americano.
我們最受歡迎的是「美式咖啡」

In Taiwan is 70 NTD, in Korea is 120 NTD.
台灣一杯美式約70塊，韓國要120塊台幣

3.捷克

One good thing about Starbucks is that it’s a global brand.
星巴克的一個好處就是它是全球性品牌

Therefore, it’s good for foreigners, because they know what to expect when they go there, and it’s everywhere the same.
所以這對剛來的外國人有幫助，因為我們知道它的飲料大概都是什麼味道

The regular coffee in Czech Republic, costs around 60 NTD.
一般咖啡在捷克大概60塊台幣一杯

And it’s double the price.
去星巴克就會貴上一倍

4.拉脫維亞

So we don’t really have Starbucks in Latvia, so when I came to Taiwan that was my first time trying it.
印象中拉脫維亞沒有星巴克，所以我第一次去星巴克是在台灣

I basically go there just to study.
我基本上都去那邊唸書

I agree that it’s a little bit overpriced. But I think basically you pay for the study place.
我承認星巴克不太便宜，但其實你就是在付那個環境錢

There’s a lot of coffee places here in Taiwan.
台灣有很多賣咖啡的地方

But most of the places I go, they don’t have a charging place for your phone or wifi.
但我去過的大部份咖啡店，沒有充電的地方和wifi

Most of the people go to Starbucks cuz there’s wifi and you can charge your phone, you can charge your computer.
大多數的人去星巴克可能還是因為不但有免費wifi，還可以充手機和筆電

5.香港

We don’t really have a ton of coffee places in Hong Kong.
在香港可以喝到咖啡的地方其實不是很多

So when we want to get some coffee, we would go to Starbucks and order matcha frappuccino.
所以香港人想喝一杯咖啡的時候，我們就會去星巴克點上一杯抹茶星冰樂

6.斯洛伐克

Well, for me personally it makes no sense to go to Starbucks to drink coffee because there are so many better places like Louisa coffee.
我不會去星巴克買咖啡，因為台灣有太多其他的咖啡店，比如路易莎咖啡

And you can choose from many kinds of coffee beans. In Starbucks, if I want espresso, they only have one kind and it’s double-priced.
你在別家還可以選不同的咖啡豆，去星巴克要點濃縮咖啡好像只有一種可選、還很貴

So why would I go there?
所以我幹嘛去？

Like for example, today’s morning I went to Family Mart.
比如今天早上我才去全家去買咖啡

And it only cost me 35 NTD, it tasted almost the same.
只花了我35塊台幣，喝起來味道都差不多

The only reason why I would actually consider going to Starbucks is because it looks nice inside and they play nice music.
我唯一會考慮進去星巴克的原因，會是他們裡面裝潢很漂亮、音樂也好聽
