Need I mention terms like "transfer pricing" or other tricks like "licensing costs" to syphon profits out of various countries to a separate corporate entity located in a tax haven?

The best thing about the place is that they are open to people from different races wherever they come from to have some of their finest coffee. Last time I had gone there wearing a potato sack and they showed no sign of disrespect. This is what Singapore is all about.
have you ever been show disrespect anywhere in singapore because you wore a saree or a traditional dress? I don't think so.
To get there early is on time and showing up on time is late

you can get the beans straight and make it yourself. a normal coffee maker should do the trick. but the key is the type of coffee bean that you will like. not all beans are made equal so you have to find the right type of bean for you. plus the right grind size to bring out the right taste

Try searching for OLD HEN, their coffee arent that bad. As for wifi, I'm not quite sure if they have it. Only been there once in a blue moon and never requested them for wifi.

For these 2 atas kopi shop, I will normally go for the Chocolate frapp instead. Especially the coffee bean 1. Double chocolate ice blended.
