While I've been visiting Woodlands Civic Centre's outlet for the past few years, the new Starbucks at Woodlands Xchange gave me an alternative, especially since Civic Centre's outlet is always full. I was glad that I could find a seat here and the interior is definitely more spacious (Civic Centre's is very crammed and there's almost no space to walk).While I'm a fan of Starbucks' seasonal beverages (such as the Salted Caramel Mocha Frappuccino above) and permanent beverages (such as the White C
While I'm a fan of Starbucks' seasonal beverages (such as the Salted Caramel Mocha Frappuccino above) and permanent beverages (such as the White Chocolate Mocha Frappuccino), I also love their food options and the portions are just right for breakfast or tea break without compromising stomach space for lunch or dinner. While the prices are a little high, Starbucks is after all a well-known brand and the quality makes up for it. Here are some of the food items I've tried.This chocolate danish is probably one of the cheapest food items in the store on display. It is very rich in chocolate and cream and not too dry, so it was pretty delightful.
The Potato, Cheese and Truffle Soup is one of the new offerings from Starbucks. They actually come in packets, but the staff will prepare the soup for you and deliver it to your table. The soup portion was actually very little (about half a cup), but it was thick and flavourful. They are also generous with the potato slices (I had 3-4 of them and they were large in size). The soup portion may be too small for the price though, especially since the potatoes take up a very large space.
I actually got the Herb Mac and Cheese from Civic Centre's outlet, but they're probably the same in every outlet. The staff will helpfully offer to heat up hot food stuff for you. The Mac and Cheese was really good, not too cheesy and the herbs gave it a saltier flavour. The edges were burnt though during the heating up, but that is forgivable.
