I was definitely surprised to see the eclectic variety of items on the menu. When I looked closer- it is actually \"An American Diner with Asian Flair\". (Ahhh, hence the yin and yang symbol on the menu). And everything is made from scratch. \n\nI came for lunch and wasn't too hungry, so I ordered a cup of French Onion soup and a half BLT sandwich. I ordered my toddler the kids meal of chicken fingers and a side of fruit (instead of french fries). Warning: the chicken fingers are HUGE. She only ate one, but that is because the side of fruit was a masterpiece in itself. It wasn't the typical orange wedges or slice of canteloupe- it was a nice bowl of ripe strawberries, kiwi, pineapple, bananas, green apples, and blueberries. We also ordered a side of garlic fries, topped with parsley and parmesan...yummo! It could have had more garlic, but then again- I am a garlic whore. \n\nI know that these are fairly simple items- but they were delicious. The 4 star rating is because of the excellent and friendly service, and because I am already a fan just by perusing the menu with lunch items that include a shrimp po boy sandwich, bulgogi sandwich, loco moco burger, and shrimp pad thai- all amidst a design your own omelet for breakfast and design your own burger for lunch. \n\nI will definitely be back for breakfast first, though. The banana fosters syrup is calling my name."^^ .
