On my previous visit, for desserts only, their lunch menu piqued my interest so I just had to come back and try their food.
They offer a wide range of interesting specials for lunch, including Braised Short Rib or Lamb Shank, Green Curry Chicken, Wagyu Burger, Pasta, and more. Most items are $18 or less. Good deal.
All the lunch specials include a bowl of soup or a salad, a slice of one of their famous cakes, coffee, or tea. Great deal! The cakes are usually around $6 by itself!
We both started with the salad. The greens were fresh and it had just the right amount of dressing. I ordered the Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Cognac Sauce and my dining companion, Raj N., ordered the Braised Short Rib. They were served with rice and vegetables. Both entrees tasted good, above average but not spectacular.
The desserts, on the other hand, were excellent. This is what they're famous for. Raj had a slice of Green Tea Mousse cake and I had a coffee flavoured slice. Yummm! We also had coffee, which was included.
I still don't know what the other reviewers are talking about regarding bad service. It was busy when we were there and we had nothing to complain about. The service was good.
Overall, it was a very good lunch and a great value. We'll definitely be back, with more friends!
