Even though you would never catch me going into a Starbucks inside the city limits of Seattle, I have been known to get my espresso fix on the road there.  During my 4 weeks in Southeast Asia, I did go to Starbucks a few times.  The shame! The espresso quality was worse than the Starbucks in the States (even more stale), however they did do one thing that I really liked.

They served my espresso in ceramic, like a real coffee shop.  The Starbucks savages in the States have always served my espresso in a tall paper cup with a plastic lid (for my protection, I was once told).  Now if they could just improve that espresso blend.
