We loved the restaurant in our hotel, the Four Seasons in Baltimore, Wit & Wisdom by Chef Mike Mina  #witandwisdombaltimore#h2hfoiegras
This was my only order and it was delicious! Seared foie gras waffle
We were able to try this yummy restaurant that is shaped like a boat!! Captain James @captainjamesbaltimore ( named after the hubby 🙂 ) It’s actually owned by 3 guys that worked in a steam ship and their captain’s name was James
 Baltimore is known for blue crabs and though it was not yet in season ( which explains the small size) we were still able to try some and we super enjoyed it. This is the crab menu – by dozen and by size. See how they served and prepared it. They season it with Old Bay seasoning and we asked for butter. yum yum  #captainjamesbaltimore #h2hcrabs
Starbucks® launches mobile app in the Philippines
 Starbucks Philippines announced the expansion of the company’s industry-leading digital ecosystem with the launch of the Starbucks PH® App, a mobile app providing a fast and convenient payment method for customers at more than 300 stores across the market.
The first coffee retailer to offer this innovation in the Philippines, the Starbucks® PH App integrates the popular Starbucks Card payment method and My Starbucks Rewards® on customers’ mobile devices.Â
“We are pleased to introduce the Starbucks® PH App to our My Starbucks Rewards® customers as they earn stars and engage with Starbucks online,” said Keith Cole, head of marketing, Starbucks Philippines. “This is the latest Starbucks innovation which aims to provide an enhanced experience and meet customers’ needs in the digital space, while continuing to provide an exceptional experience in our stores.”
Extending the Third Place
A feature called “Shake to Pay” allows customers to shake their phones to bring up a barcode within the app that can be scanned to pay and redeem. The app is linked to their My Starbucks Rewards® account so balances are automatically updated whenever the app is used.
The Starbucks® PH App keeps customers in the loop, making sure they are the first to know the newest product offerings and promos. Customers are notified whenever new messages are received on the app. Starbucks® PH Appusers are also in for a treat as they receive special offers and event invitations straight into their app inboxes. As an added bonus, users can also share these offers with friends through email and social media accounts.Â
Register to a My Starbucks Rewards® account and easily track your Stars and rewards on your phone with the Starbucks® PH App. Pool your Starbucks Cards into one account and deactivate a lost Starbucks Card within the app. Users can even view past transactions and track their balance real time.

The app also includes a menu of beverages, food options, packaged whole bean coffee, as well as seasonal offers and a newsfeed with the latest merchandise that Starbucks customers can easily explore.Â

 Innovating our Digital Flywheel
Starbucks consistently innovates to elevate the coffee experience for its customers. When it opened its first store in the Philippines in 1997, the Starbucks Experience was born. Coffee was redefined for many Filipinos from an ordinary drink that was prepared as part of a morning routine to a perfectly handcrafted beverage, made just the way you like it.
In 2013, after years of serving delicious cups of coffee to Filipinos, the global brand changed the game once more by turning the simple act of enjoying your favorite Starbucks beverages into an even more rewarding experience with the My Starbucks Rewards® loyalty program.Â
With My Starbucks Rewards®, customers are able to collect Stars, redeem rewards, receive the latest updates on new products, limited-edition merchandise and exclusive events and experience convenient cashless payment with their Starbucks Cards.

About Starbucks PhilippinesÂ
December 4, 1997, the Philippines had its first taste of the Starbucks Experience with its very first branch at the 6750 Ayala Building in Makati City. Starbucks has since won the hearts of the Filipinos. The opening of the 6750 Ayala store marked an important milestone in our history – the Philippines became the third market to open outside North America. The tradition of warm hospitality, constant need for connection, and love for coffee – these are the qualities that make Starbucks Coffee and the Filipino people a great culture fit.Â

 It was my first time to attend a Starbucks shareholders meeting. What an experience! No videos and photos allowed inside so i only have footage from outside the auditorium. Drink all you can Starbucks coffee .  As usual I am inspired by Howard Schultz and the company. I am buying more shares  #starbucksph #h2hstarbucks
 I saw Rocco Princi walking out and i asked for his photo. The founder/ baker behind @princi which you will find in @starbucksreserve stores in Seattle and in all roasteries. They may open also stand alone Princi stores in the future. We tried the Margarita and 5 formaggio flat breads and the minnestrone soup. Everything was delicious 🙂 #roccoprinci #princi #starbucks #h2hstarbucks #starbucksreserve #h2hchefs
 We ate in the same places this trip to Seattle
 Previous entry:  Etta’s Seattle april 6, 2012
This is one of the places we tried this trip which was at the Fairmont
 We had a late lunch which was around 2pm and all the other tables were having high tea.  I figured it may be a popular place for high tea 🙂  
We visited Starbucks @starbucks headquarters to see their newest @starbucksreserve which opened a few weeks ago and loved it. As always it’s just like home 🙂 The @princi bakery is awesome and you can even have an Aperol Spritz in the bar #starbucksreserveroastery #starbucks#sodoreserve #h2hstarbucks #princi
Starbucks @starbucks opened the first @starbucksreserveroastery in Seattle in 2014. Last December they opened in Shanghai. This year they will open in Milan and New York city. Next year they will open in Tokyo and Chicago. This is “Coffee Wonderland” – We opened our first Starbucks Reserve™ Roastery in Seattle’s vibrant Capitol Hill neighborhood in December 2014. It is an immersive, dramatic, theatrical expression of our coffee passion, housed in a beautiful space originally designed as a car dealership in the 1920s. Here we offer our finest small-lot coffees—including some available nowhere else—and craft everything from espresso drinks to mixology-inspired cocktails. Seattle also features the first U.S. location for the world-famous Princi Italian bakery and a curated selection of eminently desirable merchandise. It is an enormous source of hometown pride for those of us who call Seattle home.
Parking for dogs outside the @starbucksreserve roaatery in Pike street Seattle 🙂  There are plans in China to design stores for customers with pets 🙂 #starbucksreserveroastery #starbucks#h2hstarbucks #h2hanimals
