This place has a major customer service problem: A server who is too stupid not to insult the customers.
There is a poster on one of the walls about the "Asian coffee experience". I asked at the counter if they serve Asian coffees. For some reason the server showed me bags of tea. I repeated that I was interested in coffee and pointed out the poster. She said "Oh that's from his travels." and then "How do they do it?"
Before I had a chance to answer, she said in a snide tone "So you don't even know?" Like **I'm** the moron in the conversation. Excuse me, bich? Not only did I not get to speak, "Asian coffee" covers a large range of methods and styles, even different equipment. There is no 2-second answer to "how to make Asian coffee".
I said "I do know, but I'm not getting into all that now." She made a face. But even if I didn't know, so what? I'm the *customer*, asking about drinks pictured on the *walls of the restaurant*. It's not my job to know, it's hers.
Maybe she was lashing out because she felt stupid being caught not knowing about the posters in her own restaurant that she walks by every day. In any case, she handled it VERY badly. The correct response was "Sorry, no, we don't serve Asian coffee."
As for the food, it's just OK. Below the skill level of an average home cook. Its main advantage is being lighter than the other options in town, which lean heavily towards fried food. One bite of the hummus was enough for me - it was ice-cold and sour. The bread was good, but I'm 100% certain they do not make it. The whole vibe is very amateur-hour, right down to the poorly hand-painted sign.
