| - while in town for a conference, we were wandering around state street and the Capitol for our last night in Madison. my buddies and i have some interesting culinary allegiances: i'm an omnivore who was desperate for some vegetables at the end of an indulgent (cheese-curd-overdose) trip, my friend is la staunch carnivore who strictly does not eat any vegetables or healthy foods whatsoever, and our other buddy is a vegetarian.
we walked into this place because we couldn't resist its name, and we ended up being so happy that we did. among the three of us, we ordered the spring green salad (a special), the asparagus and egg open-faced sandwich, a side green salad, the tipsy chicken sandwich (crispy), and the tipsy burger. all of us were incredibly satisfied with our meals; the food was excellent and spoke exactly to each of our specific needs. we particularly liked how you can get half-orders of the apps or the salads, since the sandwiches don't come with sides.
the best part of the meal, however, was our amazing waitress, Katherine. she was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel like she was genuinely happy to make sure we had a positive experience. towards the end of our meal, two other buddies showed up and wanted to join us; when they found an outside table and we thought we'd have to cash out and start a new tab, she just let us migrate out to the patio and continued to serve us. she really was a gem and made sure our last night in Madison was a great one.
wish we could be back to frequent this place, and over-tip Katherine!!!, all the time.
