"Sugar and Spice..and the salads are nice! That's what I had when I stopped by to see what this place was all about. I wouldn't have known about this place if it were not for me driving right past it after having breakfast at neighboring Egg Works. This restaurant resides in the Eastern Hills Shopping Center. Never knew there was a restaurant here since it's not visible from Eastern Ave. It's located on the backside right behind the Greek and Vietnamese restaurants. \n\nThe menu offerings are mostly lunch fare. A bit of French, Mediterranean and Italian cuisine is represented their sandwiches,salads, and pasta selections. I guess that's the \"Spice\" part of it. \n\nThe \"Sugar\" part is displayed in the 2 cold cases at the counter. There's a variety of desserts from baklava to mango cake. I got the pre-cut square piece for seventy five cents. I'm fine with that since it's just enough sugar for me. Other sweet tooth lovers might gripe though about the serving sizes for cake pieces.\n \nThe main meal on the other hand was a very generous portion.With the hot temps, I went for lunch on the lighter side. The Spinach Arugula salad is enough for two people. I like the combo of these salad greens. These really had that picked from the garden freshness. Then tossed with glazed walnuts, apples, dried cranberries and a cream cranberry vinaigrette on the side. Just the way I like it. That way I control how much dressing to put on my salad. The prices for meals are pretty reasonable most orders are under $10 \n\nThe staff here is really nice and helpful and service was spot on. It's family owned and operated. What clued me in was the young lady who took my order went and pulled another employee to ring up the order, he then said to \"give the order to mom\". (It was so cute) I just find refreshing to see parents and their kids working together. The kitchen is visible from the counter and there was the mom, busy cooking!\n\nThe kitchen appeared really clean by the way. The dining area consists of a few tables and some seating also along the window. There's an eclectic mix of wall art and knick knack deco. It's more casual feel for me than upscale as they describe their place. It's all good though, I'll definitely be back since I'm all about supporting small businesses first and foremost. They are the heart of our community."^^ . "4"^^ . . . "2"^^ . "7"^^ . "2013-06-13T00:00:00"^^ . "10"^^ . .
