| - I've come here so many times before that I was so surprised with my visit this time around. I came on a weekday afternoon by myself to grab a bite before heading off.
I started taking pictures of the menu and then the server asked if she could help me with anything and I said no. I'm just taking pictures of the menu for a review. I continued and then she came again to tell me that pictures aren't allowed and I said again that it's to post onto Yelp for others to see. She went back and returned and said it's not allowed. At this point, I figured it's for price flexibility or they think I'm trying to steal their ideas, whatever the case, I respect their request and stop. A couple minutes later, she returns and asks for my ID. I ask what for, and she said it's to see that I'm REALLY a reviewer. I show her my Yelp profile and she takes a picture of it and returns to her boss. After that happened, I was CHEESED. I've never been so humiliated before. I can't believe they treated me like I was a criminal. I order two items anyway and try not to let it get to me.
1. Portobello Mushroom Crepe ($8.95) - if you like chewy crepes, then you would like this. To me though, it tasted like they undercooked the crepe. There was cheese and mushrooms in it but only near the top instead of throughout. They had sliced some grape tomatoes and celery on the side, but I was so pissed off that I forgot to take a picture. Sorry about that! The crepe came lukewarm, which isn't so bad since you don't want it burning your tongue anyways. There was a very strong pepper smell and taste since they sprinkle some all over it.
2. Matcha Red Bean Lava Cake with Salted Peanut Butter Gelato ($9.95) - the lava wasn't really flowing but I was impressed with the matcha flavour. It was bittersweet like matcha is supposed to be, but the cake itself was pretty dry. The gelato's colour surprised me and I really wanted to like it, but it tasted like salt with a hint of peanut butter.
FYI - they only accept cash or debit.
Overall, the food and desserts fell short and I was going to try some of the chocolate since they seem to be famous for it, but I was so upset at this point. I also didn't finish my food (which is rare) because I was so disappointed in the way I was treated. To end this experience, after she took a picture of my Yelp profile, she started being REALLY nice. "Let me fill up your water." "How is everything?" Ugh. It made me sick. I wonder if it's because they FINALLY believed me when I said I was a reviewer. So if this has happened to you, I just want to give you a shout out that you're not alone and I hope that your experience will be better.
