The line can get long on weekends but unlike neighboring coffee shops, it seems to move quickly and food comes out faster. Order pastries and bread at the glass case and coffee and breakfast at the registers. Coffee comes out by exit door while food comes out from the kitchen in the middle. The coffee is well balanced. Not sure whose they use but syrups are made in house. Breakfast sandwich looks small but is quite hearty and filling. You can add avocado, bacon, and aioli. This is a go to. West side avocado toast: adds garlic aioli, avocado, and poached egg to the Aptos version. Defn better Pesto goat cheese baguette: three letter review -- OMG Kouign Amann: this one is square, rather than classic round, and a little denser but still layered and not overly sweet. GF brownie: quite good for gluten free but sweeter than I like. Bacon egg galette: the puff pastry is nicely flaky with onions and crispy bacon. Messy but good. The premade sandwiches are all tasty and much better than you get in a grocery store. Customer service is a little hit and miss, based on personalities. There's plenty of seating inside and out.

I took a cooking class here focused on Spanish paella, and it was such a fun experience! The…read moreinstructor and assistants were clearly knowledgeable, attentive, and made the evening really enjoyable. I went with friends and we had a great time cooking together. The portion sizes were super generous; we made tons of baked chorizo croquetas, devoured our entire paella, and still had plenty of lemon ricotta cheesecake left over to take home. Just a heads-up: the class ran from 7:30 to 9:30, so dinner ends up being on the later side. That said, it's totally in line with Spanish dining culture, so no complaints there, just something to keep in mind if you're coming hungry!

There are many ways to prepare fresh oysters. You can prepare oysters in other ways than just raw…read morewith some drizzled lemon juice. Place open-shell oysters on a baking sheet and put some cream on top of them. Sprinkle parmesan and pepper on top, and broil the oysters until they start bubbling. Sauteing your oysters is another great idea. Coat oysters with some seasoned flour and saute in warm butter for a couple of minutes, until they are golden. Oysters can be baked while still in their shells. Put the oysters in a dish, add some butter and crumbs of bread to each oyster, then cook at it 425 degrees. After five minutes, remove it from the oven. As soon as the juices and butter start to bubble, they are ready to be served with a simple toasted baguette. Losing weight and eating healthy can feel difficult, but you can easily lessen the amount of oil you use in your cooking. These include fatty substances like oils and butter. A nonstick cooking spray will suffice and is not as unhealthy.
