    Pacific is always a safe bet for me - although I tend to go for the Vanilla Snowflakes!

    Interesting thing about McCafe is that they have a 12$ Cappucino that beats Starbucks/Pacific beyond belief..in taste and in cost!

    Like dreadnaught, I am no coffee connoisseur, but, I know what I don't like, I don't like starbucks coffee for sure, and yeah mcd cafe definitely beats starbucks. But, I really like Pret and simplylife's coffee, really makes my day.

    I never tried Fuel, so next time I am around IFC, I'll definitely try it, thanks for the tip.

    In IFC, Fuel is #1
    McD cappucino can't be beat for value though ($12 !!!) and tastes decent

    Never tried Fuel before. Must be a great one since everyone's championing it. Definitely going to give it a try next time I pass by.

    Strangely the name makes me think of a raucous place where people get themselves intoxicated rather than a nice quiet café.

    Wish they had a Holly Brown in IFC. Their Moccha is divine I think. Will try Fuel for sure next time!

    Fuel and Holly Brown used to be fantastic but something strange has been happening lately, I think they've both done something to their respective house blend (which they use as a base for pretty much everything) and now they are both a bit meh (at least the Landmark branch of Fuel - haven't been to the IFC one for yonks). These days I tolerate them and wait until the weekend when I get my kick from 18 gram in Causeway Bay - which sadly is closing down soon.

    For those who are planning to check out Fuel, do be warned that it will burn a hole in your wallet ($46 for a large latte that's not all that large).
