We first read about this in a local magazine, decided to try it out. We've had mostly breakfast here and dessert, but the food is really really solid. Everything that we have had,including the omelettes has been very very tasty. The ambiance and the wait staff make you feel welcome and explain the menu for the more interesting stuff on there... Where else can you get a $2 cup of very very good borsht? We've added this as a rotation for our breakfast/brunch place! Thanks Shokolad! You must try the drunken cherry cake!

Suprising New Find

When you walk into the cafe, you understand that you are in a cafe, but the familiarity ends there. The abiance in the place is fresh with a clear/clean decor. The seating is somewhat limited, but enough room not to feel smothered by others.

The food is excellent, although, I only had breakfast. Their desserts are world class. Would recommend anyone to go.

The pastry is fresh and every taste is covered, with fresh fruit tarts opera cake and even keylime cheesecake. There are small wonderful cookies and cheesecake lollipops for a quick fix. The food is fantastic, homemade soups with housemade rolls. The sandwiches are the most flavorful in the city and they also cater with many different items at reasonable prices. I have eaten here many times and tell everyone it is a hidden treasure.
The cafe itself is pretty and bright and there is a hugh orange tree with millions of blossoms that make the entire experience dreamlike.
