Do any of you guys have those places (I'm sure you do) where whenever you're walking/driving past you just have to slip in & grab one of their signature wares? Whether it be providore, bakery, cafe, restaurant, take away joint, coffee shop, whatever.... Mine is a place in Melbourne, Australia, an old Greek cafe who have been infamous for their spanokopita for 30 yrs or so... Maybe it's the familiar kitsch fitout that hasn't been changed for years? Maybe the famil(y)iar service staff? Maybe the fact that the price has gone up only marginally since I was an apprentice & lived around the corner over 20 years ago? The product isn't amazing, but it's super tasty, super consistent, & perfectly smashable as a one-hander whilst enroute to somewhere nearby...
