Cafe 101

Often times I bug David to go to Cafe 101 with me. I'm addicted to their fried cod fish for some reason. I think the atmosphere helps too. This is like Sushi Raku where you eat the atmosphere. Except, this place, aside from the modern decor, part of the atmosphere are cute young Asian girls in short skirts. Yep, that's part of their schtick. Not cutesy like Royal T in LA, but in a very Flying Saucer kinda way.


On to the menus... like most restaurants they give you 2 menus, one is for drinks and one is for food. You will find that the drink menu is much larger with more variety than the food menu. Although, nowadays they are catching on both. And these drinks are not the alcoholic variety, they're smoothie, fruit juice, and spins on those and yes, they do have bubble tea too.

The food menu has tons of stuff, from sushi to traditional Chinese dishes, to random things that people had forgotten but loved from their home t0wn, wherever that maybe. They have hotpot, soup, noodles, even omlette.

The one above is the beef and bak choy, it's very no frills type of dish, but the sauce is addictive. Each of the larger dish like that comes w/ a bowl of rice, an eggroll, a side of vegetable (range from kimchi to sauteed or seasoned veggies) and a small 'dessert' of some sort. Sometimes they give you mi-low, some times it's pudding, so that's varies.

Just their snacks are good enough to make it into a meal. And they catered to parties large and small just fine.
