Then the lasagna fo, a veggie lasagna. Huge potions and piping hot. Also ordered the rose lemonade- scrumptious. Great books and vinyl collection in a very posh mall. Highly recommend

As soon as I sat down my belongings and pulled out my laptop since I was there to study and maybe grab a bite to eat if I got hungry, the waiter approached me with the menu. I told him that perhaps I'd be interested in ordering a little bit later and thanked him anyway. He walked away very awkwardly and gave me a dirty look. Later on I started to look around and see if there were any wall outlets to plug in my laptop and I was informed by one of the other waiters that the only outlets they had available were upstairs to my surprise none of them free and available. I came back downstairs to my table and the waiter that had first approached me and kept walking back-and-forth very eyeing me as if trying to figure out my next move. Not even exaggerating, it was really uncomfortable. I didn't think I was doing anything wrong since I saw other students sitting at different tables studying as well but I didn't notice a difference in the way that he was giving them service and the tending to them and a very courteous and polite way. I decided to order a T and when I called him over he was again very awkward not even making eye contact and had a smug look on his face. Payed for my tea and left. Place is cute and all but wow really disappointed with the service. Really uncomfortable experience.
