| - Sometimes staring a new relationship with a restaurant or a business is like dating..If done in one way, you start out slow, fun and easy..and before you know it.. BOOM.. you are in L-O-V-E! Of course dating and food/business relationships can vary.. but.. The Salon Cafe and I had our first date with a coffee and a pastry. A quick bite after a Y workout. (yes this is conveniently located across from the Lake Norman YMCA - so go work out then have a treat) it consisted of a berry turnover and a coffee... Sky Mountain Coffee out of Mooresville.. yummy, simple, fresh and hot.. A super tasty, flaky pastry with just the right amount of berry filling and sweet sugar sprinkles to enhance the berry and taste of the pastry.. my palms were sweaty, my heart was beating a bit fast..I was just "happy" the rest of the day for no particular reason. On our second date, I kicked it up a notch.. An egg and cheese bagel and a coffee. The initial nervousness accompanied a strong desire to get closer. The coffee .. consistent, simple, fresh and hot.. The eggs, freshly cooked (not too much) intermingled with fresh grated cheese and seasoned to perfection on a great, soft bagel. I had gotten it to go, it traveled perfectly and was easily consumed while moving along. While not yet taking for granted, the Salon Cafe and I have some future plans..getting more comfortable, and always looking forward to our next time together.. Side Note -- parking is NOT a problem.. entrance is past the building (left if you were looking at it), exit is right -- once back behind, there are acres and acres of parking and room to move.. out front it seems a bit cramped just looking at it (dont let this scare you off) -- it is easy to get in and out despite main street traffic.
