    We had an excellent breakfast experience here. All 3 of us, we ordered the set menu. Two of us had the papaya, which was perfectly cut and prepared and one of us had the yogurt and fruit parfait which was also very tasty. For the main courses, we had: loco moco, Croque Madame and an omelet. The execution and the flavor profiles were excellent. This was a very elevated, high end and pleasant experience that proved to be a great value as well.
