    • @@GregoryLevas this is humbly my opinion but i can feel like he genuinely love what he do. For example, he didn't use the weight system for his food, he just wrapped em all out. He cares about his customers well fed more than losing a bit of money in doing that. The way he talked, introducing his worker ,even bringing one of them to the shop himself because he has a sickness. Sorry English is not my first language. And it's okay if you didn't like him. Purely my opinion, after all.
