Getting good bread
I have been buying Paillasse bread for a few months, as this is the best that I have found in Hungary so far. I grew to dislike the typical supermarket-style white bread, especially once it becomes chewy since it is often wrapped in nylon. But now I just get a baguette of "Rusztikus Paillasse" and I am good for the day.
This is, of course, if I manage to buy the bread. Because if I go to the shop at Déli Railway Station after 10 am, they are likely to have sold out. After having been turned down over and over, I started to wonder what was going on here. First of all, why is the shop open until the evening when there is no bread in it at all? Why? And second, why don't they get some more bread there? Are they afraid that they will be stuck with it after closing? This surely is not the case because even during the 2-3 minutes I spend inside there are other disappointed buyers being turned down.
And the funny thing is that I have seen the company advertise on TV. What for if you cannot buy their product? Why bother, why waste the money?
