Mine used to be Cafe Nero, upstairs from the hustle and bustle of the crew room, for coffee and a croissant. Nice way to get to know a new F/O while conducting line training. Cabin crew were on the airplane before us. I handed a box of pastries to the purse as my F/O and I briefed them for the day's operation.
