As you may know, I have a special fondness for the corner liquor store. The best corner stores are so much more than places to pick up a fifth of Seagram's and a roll of paper towels; they're little neighborhood anchors, little outposts of provisions and familiarity.
But, as you may also know, I have a refined aesthetic sense which is easily offended. And sometimes corner stores cross the line from "endearingly shabby" to "jail cell chic." Because don't get me wrong, I can get behind some shab and some outdated signage, and I'm not bothered by a little dust and dirt or some improvisational shelving. But I was nonplused by K&T. I mean, it looks like the back warehouse area of a grocery store. You do know the public can see you, right?
But they had two things going for them. (1) it was a cold day and they had bottles of water that were not refrigerated. Because on a cold day, nothing is more annoying than the freezing cold condensation of a refrigerated bottle on a bare hand. Score one for room-temperature refreshment! And (2) there were two old neighborhood dudes socializing in the store when I walked in (or, you know, chatting over refreshing beverages in paper bags, whatev), and if a corner store can't be a neighborhood meeting place, well, then it shouldn't even be there.
