When we arrived, there were firetrucks there- with lights going and all. Thankfully, it was just a false alarm. Whew.
Tuesday was only their 11th day being open.
They were having an issue with something on the oven hood so they couldn't LEGALLY prepare us anything that had to be cooked. Frankly, even though I wouldn't have cared if they just didn't tell us and went on as though nothing was wrong, I greatly respected the fact that they did inform us.
They gave us options of only having salads or a wrap or coming back at a later time --all with a discount.
It was decided that we would just take a sampler of what their choice. Boy o boy did that ever work out mighty fine! They brought us spinach pie- which is usually heated up but quite tasty cold.
They brought us THREE salads- from the top and clockwise- quinoa salad, citrus and ginger slaw, barley salad with kalamata and tomato.
And their tuNO wrap was TO DIE FOR. They can wrap it in nori or a tortilla. Ours was in a tortilla.
We had no intentions of ordering a dessert but, when we got to the counter I spotted the baked goods case. No problem. Until I saw the coconut cupcakes. I bought one. It was TO DIE FOR. Hey, they don't use any refined sugar or processed foods in there so it was fine.
There are times that I am so glad I'm not a grandmother yet. This is one of those times-CUTEST CLOTHES EVER!
Not only was the food delish, but the staff is just wonderful! So friendly and they go out of their way to please! The food could have sucked and I wouldn't have cared. They are just that nice.
We're planning a trip back soon. And we're taking DoodleBug with us. She LOVES organic food and my wonderful friend- who was her GT teacher in elementary school.
We're thinking of going for breakfast next time---maybe we'll just sit there until it's time for lunch. I already know what I'm going to order. I can't wait!
