Hmmm... the recursion is not too bad. It's a pretty common paradigm for doing 
this kind of thing. Maybe you are not very familiar with it because you're 
not very experienced in these kinds of things. Don't know.

I'll answer for Gabor. A bourekas is a kind of East Mediterranean Pastry. It 
is made out of puff pastry filled with all kinds of fillings (like cheese, 
potato mash, spinach, mushrooms, pizza-flavoured filling, etc.). It varies in 
quality, but almost always delicious.

There's a nearby bakery to the Perl Meeting, and we collectively say that we 
buy there "bourekas" for refreshments, while in fact we also buy similar 
pastries only sweet that we find there. (like Rogalakh, etc.).
