"My favorite store on the citadel" is a phrase originating from the line of dialogue "I’m Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite store on the Citadel" from Mass Effect 2. Since Shepard could\ say this for every single store, it becomes comical and virtually meaningless.

1. Average 2. Mediocre
3. Unremarkable
