holiday musings in June

right now i'm sitting in La Tazza Fresca, on the corner of 37th and Guadalupe, this lil cozy place offers nice soothing music and a killer iced minty mocha latte with whole milk that reminds me of hiding in coffee shops when it's cold outside...make sure to check this place out sometime...parking is kinda limited but this place is open late and has a good cupa strong coffee to offer the late night crowds.

on a whole different note, i visited Crave, the new sushi/thai fusion place on 21st and guad and let's just say i had a not so satisfying experience. first of all...i get the feeling that the wait staff hasn't really been trained to know the menu or the foods they're serving very well. 2ndly, the spring rolls i ordered were CUT in half! it's not too bad when the rolls are wrapped nice and tight, but basically, the rolls fell apart when i tried to pick them up. Also, my spring rolls were served with the fish sauce usually served with eggrolls which kinda lowered my taste for them even more...basically the staff seems to late communication with each other and even tho the decor was lovely, I dunno if i'll be going back soon.

gosh, that is so disappointing. who cuts a spring roll in half?!? i already have difficulty keeping them together if they are wrapped tightly, but cutting it is even worse.
