The word "vanilla" always
springs to mind when thinking about this place. The whole joint just
stinks of half-assery. They must figure if they open one of these
personality-less chains in a high traffic area that people will feel
trapped into coming in. Really, it's not as if those office jockeys
are compelled to eat here, but often there's nothing else quick in
the area, or their lunch-going spirits have been broken and they've
just given up. I stopped in this particular location for some coffee
before a job interview, and seem to remember thinking that if I got
the job that I'd never step foot back inside this soul-sucking den
of honkiness again. Well, I got the job, and the closest I've come
to the place is when I jogged by and snapped the blurry photo you
see to the left. MF] Other Locations: Au Bon Pain (Midtown East) Au Bon Pain (PABT) |
