Forever 21 founders Do Won Chang and Jin Sook Chang have declared their coffee preference, and it's not for LA-based powerhouse Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. Nope, the Changs enjoy Starbucks—so much so that they've installed their very own Starbucks store within the confines of their massive new corporate headquarters in Lincoln Heights.

Photo evidence of the shiny new coffee shop popped up today on blogger Nitrolicious' site, and a quick Google search reveals that the place already has its own private Foursquare page.

The office building opened to much fanfare last month, with Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa remarking that the Forever 21's expansion is "good for LA." The site is also the hub of the chain's e-commerce site, distribution center and warehouse.
