I had the french toast and she had the curry both were fabulous. I also had their decadent chocolate milk that i highly recommend. We browsed through the garden center and gift shop. I bought a water jar, something I have never seen in the US, hopefully it make it back unscathed! The cashier found some bubble wrap and packaged it up quite securely. Every employee in this shop was incredibly nice and helpful. Wish they had something like this in the US.

Good breakfast but nothing special…read more The place itself is really nice looking and has a nice vibe too. It's counter service so should make an order first before getting a number for your table. I went with the halloumi dish. Thought the halloumi should be more saltier or at least that's how I like my halloumi. Also if they added zaater to the dish it would be great! My wife went with the avocado on toast dish which tasted as expected no surprises. Finally we shared the pancakes. The fluffiness was great but thought it needed more syrup to make it more sugary to our liking.

Went to Muddy Crab and had excellent tacos that day. (Go there instead for lunch) This time we arrived 5:30pm and were seated promptly. We asked if the fried chicken and calamari were starters or entrees. Waitress told us they certainly were enough for entrees. Not true. Both orders were very skimpy portions. Both were fairly tasteless and were served both with tasteless and insipid sauces, neither very enjoyable. Thought salting would help but didn't. At checkout, waitress asked if we wanted separate checks!! Highly insulting, seeing I already had my money out to pay and were obviously traveling together as a married couple. This place is strange and with the menu being mostly burgers, the prices are laughable. Owner/chef/manager sat at tables with customers the entire time. He needs to be in the kitchen cooking better food. This place needs to retrain the servers and deserves a good menu overhaul. Definitely not worth the price. Won't be back.
