Costa and Starbucks are ubiquitous in the UAE, at every other corner one can find an option to refill on caffeine or get a sugar-rush in form of frappuccinos. There is a Costa coffeeshop close to my office and their delicious “Corto” has proven a quick pleasure to re-charge during a long office afternoon. Adequately served in a small glass and beautified by some milk-foam-art its a treat I do love to indulge. The chocolate chip cookie is a rare exception though.
