Ordered a cinnamon swirl take away. Several hours later after a gruelling rail replacement bus journey home I found I was given a pain aux raisin.
A PAIN AUX RAISIN INSTEAD OF A CINNAMON SWIRL.
It will take many moons to recover from this ineptitude... this betrayal
Edit: after getting home I had a nap and upon waking thought I'd eat this pastry anyway (it was the only sweet food in the house).
I have to admit it was actually quite tasty and I recognise I was being overly emotional and dramatic in my prior review.
Don't get me wrong... a pain aux raisin is not on the same tier as a cinnamon swirl. Not by a long shot.
However, to honour this new found revelation I have updated my review score to more accurately reflect the entire experience.
