    BLT with waffle fries
    Jeffrey P.

    As someone who frequently has to go to hospital cafeterias, I find the Garden Cafe inside of the Sugar Land Methodist Hospital to be one of the best. They offer a wide variety of food for an extremely low cost, including: - A hot griddle that serves breakfast sandwiches for under $3 in the morning and burgers, chicken sandwiches, and BLTs other times of days, - Two hot-food sections that serve different entrees every day, - Two hot soup selections daily, - A grab-and-go hot pizza section with inexpensive personal pizzas, - A salad and fruit bar, - And a grab and go section with pre-packed sandwiches and salads. While you're not going to get gourmet-level cuisine at the Garden Cafe, you'll still get a good quality meal for an affordable price. I'm a big fan of the BLT (under $4 for the sandwich) and the waffle fries ($2 for a serving). The portions are large, and the bacon they serve is so crispy it'd make any American diner jealous. The staff at the Garden Cafe is incredibly friendly and patient, despite being slammed day in and day out with patients, visitors, and staff. The dining area, which is located in the atrium directly in front of the Garden Cafe, has live piano music on Fridays and gets really nice natural light. It's a surprisingly nice spot for a hospital.

    Warning/Disclosure: Swallowing medical puns may cause frowning. Sign here: ___ Initial here: ___ And here: ___ Admission: Hospital food is known to have a case of chronic pain of taste buds. No one gives a referral to these places. They rely on convenience, serving breakfast in morning and pizza and deli for lunch and dinner. This place is on ground floor of the hospital's atrium, which has a high ceiling reminiscent of an old European cathedral. I grabbed a café gurney (cafeteria tray), and performed my Prep-work: Got plastic forks and scalpals ... er ... knives. Got paper sponges ... er ... napkins. The prepackaged food wrapped in foil was made in an Operating Room, probably off-site. Those MREs need an MRI to see if that is what you want. My wife ordered an Egg, Sausage, Cheese Biscuit. They had some greasy discharge into the bun. The sausage had a dark spot, but my diagnosis was a benign over-cooked spot. So, I performed a bypass on the prepackaged foods and headed to the grill, because I wanted an EKG (Eggs Kindly Grilled). Fruit bar: Sort of an open hearth sugary. Fruit in the bins is fresh and the price is not too high (weighed). My bowl of strawberries, cantaloupe and blueberries was about $1.50. At the grill, only the omelet and French toast get the Intensive Care, using fresh-cracked eggs. Boiled eggs are sitting in water like gallstones in a jar... OK, maybe not that gross. I used my senses (ear, nose & throat, Doctor) to determine the desirability of the pre-scrambled eggs sitting in the stainless steel bins, with tiny puddles of water (I was tempted to hold out my hand and yell "sponge"!). The eggs, pure yellow, look like they were made from a premixed carton. Those bin options do not make the cut for me. Vital signs of hash browns in a bin: 60 over 40 on clumpy and mushy portions. The slight crispy portions have long lost their crisp. I order a standard plate with fresh-cracked eggs, tator tots and Texas Toast (instead of biscuit, which I saw was hard as a hockey puck). Her facial expression when I ordered my eggs freshly scrambled instead of taking them from the bin was enough to give me arrhythmia. But she did it. The Attending server is the pace maker for orders. She is quite good at preparing food while asking the next customer's order. She can keep two omelets cooking properly while making plates from the bins of food. But I am nervous watching my eggs get browned (I don't like that) while she listens to the next order. Tator tots look like they got a DNR (do not resuscitate) order. Maybe if you send it to the Lab, it may be judged useful for furniture sliders. Cinnamon Roll was big, but too tough on the outer layer. Surgery was needed to split into two pieces anyway. So, an autopsy with the lesion down the middle showed hardening of the outeries, but soft on the inside, with just enough cinnamon embolisms in the spiral seam of the dough. Bacon was perfectly crisp and flat, symptoms of 'cooked elsewhere, heated here.' Orange juice: Can only get in a bottle. I grabbed a catheter tube (straw) to drink it. Coffee: Egbert Douwe, made in bulk, in a BM ... uh...clarification: 'big machine.' Option: Starbucks in the floor above by the waiting room. Needless to say, Starbucks does well in the waiting area. Post op cashier says the cost of my meal: $9.11 (plus or minus some cents) Stats: Judging by the number of captive staph ...er... staff customers wearing scrubs and hair nets, this place has a business pulse even without the steady stream of patients' relatives who have more on their minds than the food quality. But then, most of them are not Yelpers. The Dining Room has comfortable chairs, a nice respite from the rigid chairs in the hospital room that, afterwards, feel like you were in traction. Recovery room (for diners): the gentle flowing water wall portion of the dining area brings calm to relatives whose loved one is upstairs getting treated. I stared until I was nearly under anesthesia. To close and sew up this café review in one word: flatlining ... I'V had better.

    Dropped by as I had some free time and wanted to work on some things on my labtop/make some calls…read more Pros -I had the Hot Spanish Latte, and the drink was good. It had sweet milk and expresso. I thought it was sweeter than I thought it would be but still not overly sweet. I liked it and would get again. -They had many tables and also outlets good for people to use for labtops/charging. -Cafe is very pretty, modern, and overall clean. -Menu has variety with coffee, frappes, matcha Cons -Restroom or restroom doors do not have place to hang or put personal items. I had a backpack with me, and I did not want to leave it outside. -The white chairs are looking worn out and because of that, it does affect the ambience of the cafe.

    Visited Shaghf Cafe because on their online website they advertise a latte sampler flight…read more Unfortunately, when I arrived neither of the cashiers knew what I was talking about and told me it was available at another location when the menu had the Sugar Land location on it. Going forward they should update their website to avoid misleading customers. While there I ordered the Iced Red Velvet Latte it was very disappointing. It tasted like watered down coffee with no red velvet flavor or sweetness at all. This coffee actually tasted like nothing. The Iced Mocha Latte was surprisingly good. It was smooth, rich, and chocolaty making it a solid iced mocha. The Iced Pistachio Latte was easily one of the best pistachio lattes I've ever had. It was made with pistachio paste that even had crushed pistachio pieces mixed in, adding an unexpected creamy and crunchy texture. I would absolutely come back just for this drink. And last I ordered the Halal Chicken Club Sandwich it was better than expected. It came with cheese, tomato, and a cold chicken salad style filling. It wasn't very flavorful, but it was satisfying enough. The fries were fresh, thick, crispy, and delicious. The service was okay. I do recommend they update their website to accurately reflect what's available at each location and the staff become a bit more welcoming when customers first walked in. One cashier eventually gave us a list of their most popular lattes, which was helpful. The ambiance was spacious, bright, and elegant, but unfortunately, the cleanliness didn't match the atmosphere. Every table I tried was dirty, and the white chairs throughout the café were covered with stains and spots. I even noticed other customers walking around searching for a clean place to sit. I ended up having to use my own wet wipes to clean the table before getting to sit down. They do have a nice selection of board games that customers can borrow, which was a nice touch. While waiting for our orders we were able to play a game of dominoes. Overall, despite the disappointment of not having the advertised latte flight, average service, and the lack of cleanliness, the pistachio latte and mocha latte made the visit worthwhile. I'd recommend stopping by to try the drinks especially the pistachio latte, but I hope they improve the accuracy of their website and put more attention into keeping the dining area clean for customers.

    This is one popping place In Missouri City / Sugarland. How did I not know this place existed…read more One thing I love about MoCity is all the gems that are just buried unsuspecting that will blow your mind. There is no billboard or web article acclaim - but when you step inside you are transported to warmth and love on 100. This place is no exception. Such a cozy feel, the baristas are so kind and accommodating, actually smiling - can you imagine that?! They genuinely take interest in you. Here is the set up. There are so many chairs and tables, it feels like you're in a massive well decorated living room. Ample space to spread out and work or study or read scripture. Speaking of reading scripture - if God made coffee on Day 6 it was because the two new humans made him exhausted. That's why he needed rest on Day 7 teeheehee. I had a matcha latte. It was wayyyy to sweet for me. Considering I do not have a single sweet tooth in my mouth and usually drink my matcha plain. They were kinda and gave me a coffee on the house with free refills. There are alot of pastries, I heard there were tacos, I will try those next time. Will I be back?... of course. This place was popping by 9 and I see why. They are doing something RIGHT!

Conveniently located immediately to the left side once you enter the doors into Seafood City, you immediately get the sense that you are inside a home, very warm and just homey. The staff here is friendly and the menu has a good variety of snacks, sandwiches/burgers, and drinks. I've really enjoyed the Smash Burger, Fili Bistek Sando, and the Loaded Longanisa Fries. As for drinks, the pumpkin latte was good (might be seasonal) and Mango Graham Cloud are very tasty. I will say the food and drinks here are very rich and you will be (overly) stuffed after you're done. Maybe I'm just too old to be eating this frequently now, but that won't stop me from craving it. Will definitely be back here soon enough.

It was my first visit--I ordered an almond milk cappuccino, an iced banana bread latte, and a chocolate croissant (note: the full kitchen opens an hour after the shop). Both drinks were fantastic--well balanced, and the banana bread latte really tasted like its namesake without being overly sweet. The croissant was average, though I appreciated the smaller size compared to the oversized ones you usually see. The barista was knowledgeable and genuinely engaged with customers, which made the experience stand out. One downside: the Wi-Fi was slow, even when it wasn't busy, so I ended up using my phone hotspot. I'd come back to try the matcha and explore more of the food menu.

    I just found another beautiful and spacious coffee spot for studying or late night dessert date!…read moreThey specialize in unique Yemeni options like Harazi Mufawar, and a variety of tasty pastrie such as Dubai cheese bread, Turkish baklava (a rich, buttery pastry made of paper-thin layers of phyllo dough filled with finely crushed nuts and pistachio), and mom's kunafa. The staff was very patient with me since it was my first time and didn't know what the desserts taste like. I got the lavender matcha half sweet and the honeycomb cheese bread. Maybe because I ordered less sweet so I don't taste the lavender at all, but my matcha did have a slightly strong fragrant smell in the beginning. But overall the drink got more bland as the ice melted. The bread was good though, they give honey on the side so you can adjust the sweetness yourself. The bread is pillowy and easily pulled apart, a good balanced sweet savory pastry because the cheese is light and not overpowering. I would love to come back again next time to try the other popular desserts and their coffees.
