A view of the new Starbucks Reserve Roastery is seen during the opening ceremony in Shanghai, China, on Tuesday. "There are many more choices for consumers in the coffee market here now," said Wu, 35, who set up the store with her boyfriend this year, the couple's second outlet. The world's LARGEST @Starbucks is about to be unveiled in Shanghai, China with 30,000 square feet of pure coffee heaven! International coffee chains are now looking to get in on the act, too - despite Starbucks having a big head start. For now at least, China's developing cafe culture is likely to be more a boost than burden for big names like Starbucks.
