(A good start...) are amazing and will be served with a jus d'orange/smoothie and coffee/tea. You could also take a espresso which I prefer, because of their use of 100% organic Arabica beans. The atmosphere is really relaxed and you will enjoy your breakfast.

As there are not many tables reserving a table may be advisable. My choice of diner did not disappoint: the Rendang was simply devine; I can definitely recommend it.

English menu available (pics of literal translations uploaded) poor-fair beer selection and a fair menu if choices. I have a clue as to why in a bit... Tomato soup mmmmm yessss!! Perfect!! Although I almost poked my eye out on the odd spike my bread was delivered on :) A deconstructed chicken salad (as entree) was also pretty yummy (although I am anti beet and they were left behind) fries were kinda..lame..nothing to make them yummy..:( This spot is clearly a nice place for parents to stop in after kids have exhausted themselves in the massive dune outside. Kids were very well behaved if a little energetic (which I love!!) So swing by if you are toting the kids along and want and adult meal with children options
