A French journalist said Thursday the only dissatisfaction she had with the media center of the World Expo in Shanghai was that the coffee should be stronger.

Helene Franchineau, who works for the Slate Magazine in France, told Xinhua that the work conditions in the Expo was otherwise flawless.

"The facilities are great. Everything is modern. We have lots of space to work," she said.

Journalists from across the world have started covering the Expo, a major event in China that is scheduled to officially open on May 1. From April 20th to 26th, the site was open to visitors in a trial operation.

Maurice Guibord, a reporter of Radio Canada, said the services provided for journalists are of good quality.

Guibord said he was interested in green technologies at the Expo.
