Starbucks is a name synonymous with coffee. I still remember the times of October 2012, when the first store of Starbucks opened in Mumbai – it was a craze.
Then came the month of February 2013 (February 6th, to be specific) when the honor happened at CP. There were lines of people eagerly waiting to taste the best of coffee.
Starbucks recently came up with ‘Meet Me at Starbucks’ globally – where they try to bring people together – face to face – to share our joys – better understand each other and share more stories. The Indian version is ‘Meet me Thursdays’ – a concept where they organize gigs and events on Thursdays at selected Starbucks outlets. The very first one happened in Starbucks, Cyber Hub and we were invited for it!
The gigs are short – just an hour or so – letting the people enjoy their coffee along with some entertainment. The theme for June is stand up comedy. For the day – two prominent names in the list of stand-up comedians – Vikramjit Singh & Amit Sharma – were performing!
Vikramjit Singh – an engineer by education – gave up his full time job for his passion of getting people to laugh. His ability to connect with the people just keeps the audience wanting for more. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire hour and at the end we were craving for more! Amit Sharma – also having left his job to do this full time is a good entertainer.
The events are being organized across different stores and dates. Mentioned below is a schedule for the month of June.
The events are a great way to connect with people, have a rib-tickling mid-week hour and a welcome change from the continuity of office hours. Just top it up with a cup of coffee from the ostentatious menu of Starbucks and get ready to ROFL!

Reblogged this on Musings of the eaten path.
I’m amazed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s both educative and interesting, and let me tell you, you’ve hit the nail on the head. The problem is something which not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy I found this during my hunt for something concerning this.|
