I’m live-blogging my SAS EuroBonus SkyTeam Million Mile challenge this week. Click here for background and route information.
I enjoyed a nice cup of coffee in Singapore Changi Airport at a coffee chain with links to Australia and the gulf carrier Emirates.
Best Coffee in Singapore Changi Airport – Australian Coffee Owned By Emirates
As a SkyTeam flyer on this trip, we had no access to the wonderful oneworld (Qantas, Qatar, British Airways) or Singapore Airlines lounges. I’ll review the Marhaba Lounge next but in short, skip it.
I had begun the morning with excellent coffee at the Park Hyatt Saigon, but by now it was the middle of the afternoon and I was ready for my next cup of coffee.
Singapore Changi Airport certainly has many coffee shops, including Bacha most prominently in the center of Terminal 3.
But I have a confession to make: I don’t like Bacha…or Pret a Manger…or Starbucks…or Coffee Bean.
However, I found a great choice at a place called Hudsons. I never heard of it before, but learned that Hudsons is an Australian chain of coffee retailers with over 60 stores across Australia…and one at Changi Airport in Singapore. Even more interesting? The chain is owned by the Emirates Group, which includes not only Emirates (the airline), but Costa Coffee…
The flat white (with an extra shot of espresso to make it quite strong) truly hit the spot and fueled me for what would turn out to be a much longer day ahead.
Meanwhile, it was pouring rain outside by Mr. Augustine decided it would be a good idea to run outside (via the butterfly garden) becuase, “Daddy, I like the rain.”
Alrighty, then. Coffee for me. Rain for Augsutine.
I like black coffee only – No milk, no sugar, no fake sugar, no cinnamon or any of that other crap. Sometimes if the coffee is really bad – Starbucks pisswater for instance, you need to add something to improve on the awful burnt taste.
But if the coffee is good, then black is all I need.
Of course, anyone can enjoy whatever coffee they want but we all agree that Aaron is a power bottom who likes it when “bears” run trains on him. I just prefer the taste of coffee by itself.
I like milk with my coffee…never sugar, syrup, or other flavor.
A bit of foamed milk makes a great coffee even better.
Lol you really need to stop projecting your kinkiest sexual desires and fantasies onto me (assuming they are only fantasies and you haven’t tested them out yourself).
We do enjoy Bacha coffee but at the price point it sells at it is more hype than flavour.
Pricing aside, I didn’t even think it was all that great of a coffee.
“Hudsons is an Australian chain of coffee retailers with over 60 stores across Australia…and one at Changi Airport in Singapore.”
As per their website, they also have them at airports in New Zealand as well.
Interesting on who owns them, though.
Costa Coffee is in fact owned by….. Coca-Cola.
Hope “Augsutine” didn’t get soaked in the rain !
@ Richard …. “Costa-Cola” , anyone ?
