I don't always go to Starbucks, but when I do, I go to Starbucks at The Orchard! This is not a review, this is a shout-out to the most awesome baristas ever who also happen to be the most incredibly kind and amazing people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing (in no particular order); Mace, Jorge, Danah, Savannah, Tanya, Jony, DaSean, Hope, Jessy, Kenneth, Ashley, Samira, Hannah, Johnathan, Evan, Kealy, Travis, Vanessa, Shawn, Katelyn, Tina, Jessica, Roxie, Veronica, Jackson, & Trysten, thank you all for being who you are!
