Bento Cafe

Ba Jang

Bamboo leaves wrap the rice into a pyramid that’s stuffed with pork, sausage, salted boiled egg and rich sauce. Top that with crushed peanuts, herbs, sugar and a touch of salt. Incredibly good. In fact, it was so good we ordered more to-go. And, the to-go […]

Buckthorn Preserves @ Buford Highway Farmers Market

Raspberry & Black Currant Preserves

Someone’s a sucker for pretty packaging.

We bought a jar of the Sea Buckthorn.

Nuts soaked in honey make a lovely accompaniment to a mug of tea and a wedge of pound cake […]

Royal China

Fried Tofu Skin Stuffed with Pork & Crab

By far, this was the favorite of the day. Piping hot and straight out of the kitchen, these were incredible. The touch of fresh green accented the pork and crab in the best possible way.

Fresh Cream Filled Croissants

Castella Crumb Twisted Doughnut

99 cents… Seriously? They were on this day. It was the daily special.

Chat Patti

Patra Plate

Coated in a chickpea batter, patra leaves are rolled, steamed and sliced. Then, they’re topped with cilantro and shredded coconut. Served with a green chutney, this could easily become a new favorite dish of ours.

Samosa Chat

Sweet Hut Bakery

Coconut Tarts

Glazed with (apricot?) jelly and topped with a cherry, these moist little coconut tarts are some of the best coconut tarts we’ve ever tasted.

Stuffed with a super moist and rich coconut filling that’s one part cake and one part cookie, […]

Kombucha

Multi-Green Kombucha

It looks a bit like New York City sewer water might after the Zombie Apocalypse. But, after a sip or two it’s oddly addictive and “interesting”. There’s a seriously sharp, vinegary bite. And, there’s quite a bit of harsh IN YOUR FACE (and tickle your nose) […]

Sichuan House

Crispy Lobsters

Chopped into good-sized pieces, deep fried and topped with crispy garlic and shallots… you wanna talk about finger lickin’ good. This is it. We weren’t going to let those delicious droplets of lobster scented oil go to waste.

This will make a lovely accompaniment to this weekend’s morning tea… or coffee.

Earl Grey & Cardamom Sugar Crystals

Many of the teas are “buy one get one free”. So, we did. Also, we happily grabbed […]
