On such afternoons, I often find myself wandering--letting instinct guide me rather than intention. It was during one of these aimless drives that a simple word, "Gelato," caught my attention. Curious, I stepped inside. The experience unfolded with quiet efficiency. After noting our names on a modest waiting list, we were seated within minutes. Seeking guidance, I asked about the house favorites--always a telling measure of a kitchen's confidence. Soon after, a freshly prepared, steaming dish arrived at our table. It was immediate, honest, and deeply satisfying--proof that even unplanned moments can yield unexpectedly refined pleasures.

The only thing I did not expect was the salmon bowl not to have chunk of visible salmon it was more of a crab and salmon mix bowl. Wasn't bad but it wasnt what we would consider be a poke bowl.

The inside was very clean and felt big even though it's a small place. They thought about how to lay it out. I ordered the salmon cream cheese burrito. The diagonal cut made it where I couldn't get all the parts of the burrito in one bite. This meant all cream cheese in multiple bits and then the other half all fish and veggies. The fish was very fresh and delicious. Due to size the burrito split because the seaweed didn't overlap. My husband got a spicy version and was disappointed that it wasn't spicy at all. It also fell apart. The miso soup is the best we have had in a long time. The salad it came with was just coleslaw mix with nonexistent dressing. In all we will go back and try normal rolls to see if it's worth it. Price is definitely worth it. We left full.

Finding foods that had flavor was a real struggle, we tried all the recommended top dollar seafood and steak places. They were over priced with nice locations, but not what we were looking for that great flavors that would bring us back for more. Then we finally gave Noodle Cafe a try. It's been maybe 1.5 years since we met Lisa the wonderful owner and first time since we moved here that we started really enjoying eating out again. The food here is always the freshest of ingredients, with flavors that is unmatched and delicious that makes us eat here 4-6 times a month. A lot of places in Oregon that you dine in at can leave you with buyers remorse, my wife can honestly say that is never the case while dining at Noodle Cafe. I promise you if you've never tried it, you will not be let down.

Flavorful and delicious, Fire Foods delivers the best in Asian food here in Molalla. I haven't had their burgers yet but after reading the reviews here, I'm thinking I need to try one! In any event, with the cold grey day we are having today, a bowl of hot ramen soup was the perfect thing to send the overcast blues flying out the window. Today, I had the Veggie Ramen Soup with shrimp & egg along with a cup of jasmine flower tea. The bowl of soup was so big I had to ask for a container to take home what I couldn't eat at lunch. With big huge shrimps and a perfectly poached egg, the noodles and veggies (broccoli, cabbage, bean sprouts, carrots, onions, bok choy) hit the spot. The broth was delicious with the perfect amount of spiciness - my lips were tingling with the heat! (Tip: I asked for a "1" on the spiciness chart and it was spicy. I think it might have actually been a "2" because it was spicy! I like my food spicy but if you don't, maybe ask for a "0".) Ordering is accomplished at the counter, which is on the left when you enter the front door. When I said I needed some soup for a chilly day, the man who took my order suggested the Veggie Ramen. He then asked if I wanted to add anything to it and I requested chicken, although I got those huge beautiful shrimp. (I'll be asking for those shrimp from now on!) Prices are comparable to or less than any other place these days - veggie ramen soup was $12 and the pot of tea that I got at least 3 mugfuls out of was $2.50. Add-ons to the soup like chicken, beef or shrimp are an additional couple of bucks. All decked out for the holidays, my favorite decoration was the Grinch Christmas Tree! Fun and festive! I'll be going back soon - maybe to try a burger but I love their Asian food so it might be hard to choose.
