Panera

Have you been to Panera? It is not another country. The great sea of humanity that passes through Panera is symbolic of all of humanity on the march with a basic need for food, safety, and congeniality. That is what is offered at Panera. The variety of customers, all ages and types, and the attention the employees pay to them is stunning because we have grown used to being ignored or patronized. On top of this human benefit is the quality of the food and fair prices. It is more like a village than a cafeteria. It is a rendezvous for lovers, an office for a laptop , a park bench for old friends, a civilzed, tasteful, happy place to eat with someone or alone. Try it. You will love it!
