I was reading a post on another forum from an expat Brit living in the U.S. who lamented Americans' excessive use of this spice. He claims that where he comes from, the spice is used very conservatively and appeals to a more refined palate while places in the New World like Cinnabon® produce vomit inducing inedibles. I'm not in airports enough to be able to comment on this opinion.
I'm partial to Brown Sugar/Cinnamon Pop Tarts, myself.
A bit of clove is great in tomato-based dishes such as spaghetti, chili, and picadillo.
A great use of nutmeg is when you've got some cheap scotch you need to make palatable. Mix the scotch in a blender with (good) vanilla ice cream, sprinkle with nutmeg. Better than eggnog.
Place is amazing. All they have is spices and you can smell the place 2 blocks away. All they have is displays on the shelf. You have to go to the clerk and he weighs, grinds,bottles and prints out the bottle label. I walked in looking for Hungarian paprika and walked out with a shopping bag full and had to build 3 new spice racks. I have 7 types of salt from the Baltic region only.
