| - Picnic Co...errrrr...no wait, Cafe Martha, oh how I've missed you, eh? I work in Old Town and well let's just say, there are not too many lunch eateries to choose from in the neighborhood. And in the industry I am in, I sometimes do not get a lunch hour. Thus, I have to run out quickly and grab a bite to bring back to eat at my desk (if I do not do as I should and bring something for lunch.).
The former Picnic Co. was close, convenient, and fairly decent quality. More so than the cafe in the middle of our complex courtyard that has been dubbed by many in the company as "Pasicko's". So when Picnic Co. closed its doors last year, a lot of us in the building (more so my department) were dumbfounded and stumped on where to go.
The word traveled quickly that Cafe Martha's was opening up where Picnic Co used to be. Would it be just as good as PC? Would the prices be reasonable? Only one way to find out!
I walked in and saw 2 former PC employees working behind the counter. Okay, things are looking positive. A gentleman was stationed by the door with a guitar and amp playing some blues. Nice touch. Found out that the sister owners also own Baby K's in phoenix.
On to the food - I ordered the Chef Salad, as I always did when it was PC with Ranch dressing. I got back to work and took my salad out of the bag. Can I get a side of lettuce with that turkey, ham, etc? SHEESH did they pack the meat on that salad!! I'm not complaining though! lol :) The ranch tasted homemade, which is what they claim all of their dressings to be. And because I am a sucker for sweets sometimes, I bought one of the giant rice krispie treats. YUM! I was good and shared the rice krispie though a few coworkers.
C.M. - I'll be back! :)
