9/08/10 How much for a coffee?

After another visit to the fish market at the harbour for some sushi it began to rain heavily.  Since I was behind on my journal I retreated to the local Starbucks to get a cup of familiar coffee.  Although I’m aware of the conversion rate between the Taiwanese and Canadian dollars, one can’t be helped when the barrista says “one grande americano, $95”.  One already has trouble getting change back from a $20 in Canada, can the days of $100 coffee be far off?
