Springfield

(Place, tavern, firm, Yugoslavia)

The ugly dark gray box of a building across the crossing (*) from the community center here. The best place to sit is right inside, where it can't be seen. Relatively good pizza, new waitresses every two months, laško črno beer, playground for the kids inside, the owner is a cool guy. Often can't avoid having a screen wherever you sit, but recently it got better.

Over the years (2013 and later) it got more and more americanized, to the point when we once got a menu entirely in english. I have this crazy serbian streak that I'm not giving a dime to anything that discriminates against me, so I got up and left. Ever since then I'm not entering the place unless accompanying foreign citizens who speak english. Which still turns out to be a lot of times.

* In local serbian, that would be "u šreh", aka "in awry", meaning "across but slanted". Opposite corners of an intersection.
