So sweet that she deserved the big tip I left for her. Hopefully she got it. I've been to the downtown Seattle location, but my friend works down the street from the Bellevue location so a few of us decided to drive over to spend lunch time with her. It was all their first time and they were impressed. Everything so fresh, and they had a good selection of sandwiches and salads. We also enjoyed the drinks they offered. I liked the guava lemonade. Place looked clean and inviting. Manager came up To see how we were then cleaned up for us. He was going to bring me a bag and wrap so I can take leftovers home. He apologized because he forgot, but that's fine we weren't in a rush. Great place to hang out with your friends especially when some of us are picky eaters.

On a random Sunday night I was looking for something not too heavy but tasting pretty good. I just…read morehappened to think of Sizzle&Crunch nearby, perhaps because they offer a Doordash Dining Out deal...and on top of that they have a BOGO 50% for a second bowl. I ordered a variety pork plate and a beef rice bowl. The pork plate featured two different cuts of pork with rice and then the toppings like scallions, lettuce, and other veggies, topped with a fried egg. It was alright. The pork belly was significantly better than the sliced pork. My other bowl was the beef bowl which I brought to work the next day and the beef was quite excellent and flavourful. So a decent deal for some pretty good choices - nothing too exciting but hits the spot. The dining in setting is sort of strange in that you're served with disposable containers and utensils, but there's no where to dispose of it. So although it would suggest that you should clean up after yourself, I had no choice but to awkwardly leave it for the busy staff to get around to clean.

The menu is quite small with three cold sandwiches and three hot ones, each inspired by a different region of the globe with the South Pacific, South America and Mediterranean as a few examples. There were two salads listed as well. I've been here twice and both times, when I went to place my order on the iPad, the menu stated they were out of stock for the sandwich that I wanted. However, when I asked the employee, she said that was not correct. So if you see the same message when ordering, it's worth asking about it! During my first visit, I ordered the RENDANG ($14). This hot sandwich came packed with SO much meat! Very tender chunks of marinated beef tasted of coconut, curry and warm spices. The flavor had true depth and I could actually taste hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. Thin spears of pickled cucumber and carrot added crunch and a perfect zing of acidity. They were refreshing and cut through the rich beef. A drizzle of Sambal Terasi (chili) aioli gave it another layer of flavor. Cilantro, mint and Thai basil were all fresh and vibrant. The bread was lightly toasted, being a little crinkly in texture without being harsh against my gums. If I could change something, I would include a couple extra slices of the cucumber to balance out the ratio of vegetables to meat, and add a bit more of the aioli. Other than that, this is a great sandwich influenced by flavors of the South Pacific. My companion got the STEAK sandwich ($15) and enjoyed it. The steak slices were thinly cut and tender as well. They do their beef right! On another occasion, I tried the PROSCIUTTO ($14), one of their cold sandwiches. The delicate layers of prosciutto were placed on top of sliced tomatoes, pickled onion and arugula, all between pressed focaccia bread. Truffle mustard was spread on both pieces of bread, which was WAY too much in my opinion. With this mustard having a stronger flavor, it overpowered the sandwich and made it too tangy, especially in combination with the pickled onions. The menu stated this should include pistachios, but I didn't notice any, and they were all out of provolone, so there was also an absence of cheese. For the prices, these sandwiches are pretty generous in size, so I consider them a good deal, especially for the Bellevue area. The ingredients are fresh and make for a fantastic lunch option. While I wasn't a huge fan of the Prosciutto sandwich, I'd definitely go back again for another Rendang!

Their specialty drinks are the highlight, with unique options like a sweet corn latte. We tried the coconut and black sesame lattes. Both had strong coffee flavor and leaned a bit bitter, but still good. The strawberry croffle was delicious, and the ham and cheese piadina was solid. Service was quick. Parking is a bit annoying with mostly street options. Overall, a good spot to try something different, but not quite a go to for me.

I recently stopped by Cafe Joy and tried their mango matcha, and it was honestly such a pleasant…read moresurprise. The drink leaned more toward a matcha mango milk tea, which I loved. had that creamy, smooth matcha base with a subtle sweetness from the mango. What really stood out were the small chunks of real mango in the drink. They had a soft, almost jelly-like texture but were actually fresh fruit, which made it feel more refreshing and less artificial compared to typical fruit add-ins. It added a nice burst of flavor and texture in every sip.

Did not expect to like it as much as I did. We also got some mocktails which were yummy and hit the spot!

Fried Salmon (3): The pic looked really good. Like a Fish n Chips but with salmon. Served with pineapple fried rice. The salmon wasn't really seasoned. The batter was good and crispy but the lack of flavor required their sauce. Their sweet and sour sauce it came with was really good, but you needed to soak every bite with it. The pineapple rice was just okay as well. I do suspect I'll return since this is close to our office. Since this is a Thai place, I'll try a Thai dish next time. As of now though, I'd avoid their specials menu.
