Again, the haters grumble about trivial issues...
I walked to Luci's from my house and was parched when I arrived. I grabbed a large cup of the BEST TEA OF MY LIFE. It's a pomegranate citrus green tea and they sell it for 5.99 in the tea area.. Usually green teas are bitter or have a bitter bite, but this tea was excellent. I had 3 huge glasses.. By the time I got home I had to pee in the worst way.. hah!
OK, second thing. Ken the owner was walking around talking to everyone and told us about the work they did to install new trusses in the building .. way cool.
As you walk in (facing the coffee station), check out the food in the fridge.. it's prepared fresh every morning and the intent is for people to grab on the way to work.. fresh home made food.. awesome..
We also met Ebenezer Williams, the chef responsible for the hominy and beet chicken salad we had.. man was that good. We talked to Ebenezer for a while about his cooking and he said the reason he cooks is to see that look in peoples eyes when they taste something really great that they didn't expect.. well Ebenezer, zing; Hominy and Beets it is!
REALLY Cool Fact: they have a demo kitchen where they'll be doing cooking classes and other food related stuff.. right on!
The only thing I'd like to see in addition to the cool stuff they're already doing is a weekend special like Omelet Sundays or pancake Saturdays.. that would rock!
