    The best thing I tried this month (and where to find it)

    It started as a half-plan on a Tuesday and somehow became the highlight of the week. I wrote down everything while it was fresh, mostly so future-me could relive it — but if this helps you pick your own version of it, even better.

    A few practical notes before you try it: bring cash, give yourself more time than feels necessary, and photograph the menu board — future you will want to know what that was.

    The photos barely do it justice, which is exactly why I keep a blog instead of just a camera roll. Context is the whole story; the picture is just the receipt.

    Money note, since nobody else says it out loud: the whole thing cost less than a takeaway dinner, and most of the supplies came from the drawer I was about to throw out.

    I tested this for a month before writing anything. Three takeaways survived contact with reality: it is cheaper than it looks, it rewards consistency over intensity, and the boring option is usually the one that works.
