this from a local; this cafe is worth the visit;
plan on staying longer than first anticipated as the atmosphere is quite pleasant;
the food is generally excellent;
the pork chops were surprisingly good (and i generally dont like pork chops); the wild berry smoothie was exceptional and the 3 coffee smoothie also quite good;
my salmon steak was a little better than average;
because we had to wait for the kitchen to open they gifted us the french fries in advance of the chef arriving;
the kitchen doesnt open until 11 so the opening time of 10 AM here is misleading;
the moo yong (bbq pork) was only average as they use the pan fry substitution method;
interesting 'hash browns' served with the salmon and the pork chop entrees;
smart menu altho after the first couple pages it was only in thai (?!) they should fix that;
the service is exceptional, smart people;
parking is for 4 vehicles and that might bite them down the road;
the cafe is set off from the busy highway so there is no road noise inside the cafe and little on the outside seating; there are 6 seating areas inside the cafe , i consider (my opinion) only 3 of them as 'preferred' so if the parking lot is full when you get there you may have to settle for the lesser preferred seating;
has wine and allows corkage fee;
closed wednesdays;
recommended and i will be back, perhaps often
btw: the scrumptous-looking vegatable and fruit salad shown in some photos is listed on the menu as "Ham Salad"; i ordered it but the server recommended against it as some of the fruits are out of season; she said the salad would be 'tamada' (normal); cant imagine what they must pay for kiwi fruit
