I wanted to try something new at the public market and settled in Aladdin. I ordered the chicken…read morekabab sandwich. It was a chicken kabab on pita, with onion, tomato, tzatziki, and pickles. I am not unfamiliar with Mediterranean/middle eastern food. I regularly order shish tawook wraps, which was more of what I was expecting. This was like two grilled chicken cutlets that had been overly cooked and drenched in a slightly spicy marinara. The tomato sauce really threw me. And the chicken was tough and dry. I was getting more chicken parmesan vibes than anything else. I had to take the chicken off and discard it. The pita was nice and fluffy and the tzatziki was actually really good. Thick and tangy. A good hit of garlic. I ate it with the pita and the veggies. The amount of chicken on the sandwich was impressive, it just wasn't any good. Maybe the flavors would have been ok if the chicken had not been so tough. But I won't try that again.

It reminds me of the now closed Beans and Barley in the early 80s--before the fire. There is also a variety of fresh produce and sometimes bakery for those in need.

Their pay-what-you-can model makes nourishing, plant-based food accessible to everyone, and every dish is made with love. On my visit for Vegan Soul Friday, I had the Soul-Kissed BLT -- applewood vegan bacon, fresh lettuce, juicy tomato, cheddar cheeze, candied jalapeños, and chipotle-avocado aioli on a wheat baguette. It was incredible -- smoky, tangy, and just the right amount of spice. Paired with their Cucumber-Mint Lemonade, it was the perfect balance of refreshing and flavorful. The team was also incredibly accommodating of my scooter and accessibility needs, which made the experience even more special. Whether you're vegan or just love great food with a mission, you need to visit Tricklebee Café. It's more than a meal -- it's a place where good food and good people come together. #AccessWithSamera #AccessWithSamera

I would definitely come here again because of the fantastic service. They seated us at a table that has the best light and even turned down the music a little when I asked (usually they say they will and then don't). They were attentive and checked in to see that we enjoyed what we ordered. One note which is not unusual for Indian restaurants is they don't use chicken breast but thighs in their dishes. I really liked the samosas.

Who knows, you may never go back to big supermarket after trying these options.

When i walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff seemed super nice, and were diligent about helping all orders ahead of me pretty fast paced. I've been dealing with a lot (hence the appointments mentioned) so finding new food places (and food places that are GOOD) always serves as a pick-me-up. I ordered a tuna melt, muffin, and hibiscus iced tea...that tuna melt was so good I completely forgot about taking a picture of it. But the banana chocolate chip muffin and iced tea were also some of the best morning goodies I've ever had. If it wasn't so much of a hike from where I actually live, I'd probably be an everyday regular here. Definitely delicious and would recommend visiting.

Could there be a better reason to stuff your face full of bread? Friendship Cafe and Bakery hits like home with a mixed staff who are warm, friendly and really are overjoyed to be at work. Some of which are actual graduates of the 12 month employment training program Friendship runs for adults with disabilities to get placed in amazing work environments to support themselves and make (guess what) FRIENDS. The cafe makes coffee drinks, refreshers, teas and other beverages along with every baked good you can dream up. Muffins, cake pops, cookies, cakes, bagels, strudels and delicious loaves of bread. This place also caters any mealtime and touts being able to provide menus that can be: nut free, Kosher, gluten free and dairy free. Customization is key and what they're there for! The distinguished Head Pastry Chef, Tara Forosisky-Benito, puts all her passion into her baked goods and breads. She's worked on this particular sourdough starter perfecting its makeup for a little over 5 years! And to make sure that the kitchen is always performing at the highest quality and speed, she's always 20 steps ahead in terms of prep and early mornings. I got a peek inside the kitchen after I heard all about their nonprofit mission and you could see the creativity popping and the drive to support some of the fellow employees was apparent. Oh, did I mention there's an art studio space, too? As if they aren't doing enough, they host art and little workshops like the popular "Art and Baking" for kiddos in the Fall. This cafe is remote work friendly (free WiFi!), has delicious drinks and baked treats all while supporting an important cause. Will definitely be making a bunch of trips back!
