Caught a cab at the gate of a us airbase in south Korea and asked the guy to take us to Starbucks.
Dude says "no problem", and drives us all the way across the city to an obscure little strip mall with a gigantic sign that said Starbox.
It had a coffee shop, so it worked out, but I still say "starbox" instead of Starbucks decades later :)
Do you pay cabs by the mile in Japan? It might be something that he commonly "misunderstands".
He didn't seem like the scammy type at all :)
Japan? But they said this happened in South Korea.
You are correct. I don't know why I said that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It was a very long cab ride
Especially if his cousin happens to own Starbox.
