I don't remember the banana oddly enough, but I remember the carousel paneling at the top of the walls. I thought to myself, "Hey, that looks like that deli in Madison." And sure enough, Ella's Deli. They had the best cherry Cokes, which now is apparently Pepsi. They used to offer lemon cokes too. Definitely one of the best things about Madison. Good times. Christ that brings back memories!
