Ive tried several of her sandwiches, all of her kimbap options, and her korean noodle bowl. Ive also tried most of her drink options. Drinks are fine - pretty typical coffee shop beverages and quality is good. Certainly theyre not going to win best coffee awards or anything like that, but its more than fine. Food tastes homemade and fresh which is awesome. She makes it all to order. Anyone who has run a small business before will know how tough it can be, especially when it involves the service industry, so my kudos to her for doing this on her own this well. Nobody is perfect, but this place is worth a visit. Restaurant is small and cozy but clean and comfortable enough. There are a few seats/tables. Many people do takeout.

*What's past is prologue*…read more The most recent past? The Ovaltine Cafe. Right near the Garden Strathcona. I could have went there, but it was too fancy for riff raff, coarse, and an unbecomingly dressed individual such as myself. Maybe another day. After all, I was planning on fancying myself up for the Blue Water Cafe and Raw Bar later that evening. Being posh twice in one day is compulsive, and let alone be excessive. So I dined in this unpretentious institution instead. I felt,.... compelled. Friendly lady, who I assume is the owner. Pricing is similar to the Ovaltine, tax in, albeit slightly less expensive. "Danger" pricing at the Ovaltine I can only imagine. It's closer to ground zero. Standard diner fare. I'd return if I'm in the area and the timing is right. Plenty of street parking. There's not much competition for this type of food/business in the area. You'd have to trek further.

Food is really good - I had their cheese burger awhile ago and it was filling, tasty and came with a side of crinkle cut French fries! Price - you'll be mindblown by how cheap the food is. Food is quality and price is so affordable. Very old and run down looking in the exterior and interior, though, it has the late 80s no fuss-diner vibe and feel. Today I didn't have much cash on hand so I just ordered a small French fries - $3.95. Came out hot, tasty and not overdone! #supportsmallbusiness
