Oh man don’t get me started on Oporto.

Picture it, late 1990’s. @mysticgreg is working in Sydney and living in the southern suburbs, right near one of the early Oporto stores. IT WAS GLORIOUS. Double-Bondi burgers with tender, juicy chicken fillets bigger than your head, and chilli hot enough to melt the paper they came in. Rappas so good they would launch you into another dimension.

Time moves on, I return to Victoria. Decades later I stumble upon an Oporto and think OH YES, IT HAS RETURNED TO MY LIFE. I order. I unwrap the food. I look confused. I taste it. I cry. I mourn. I leave.

It is but a shadow of its former self :(
