GLASS ONION CAFE

The theme of this restaurant is hippie-dippie - early Beatles but post- Buddy Holly - potheads rule. As Michelle and I were waiting going on 30 minutes for my breakfast omelet and marble rye toast, we suddenly looked down at our tablecloth and wondered if that was the reason why the service was so slow. It was painted with a huge marijuana leaf.

The food was quite good though my omelet was a baked egg affair in a discus type shape. Michelle had a salad with cheese and turkey and lemon pepper vinaigrette that she really enjoyed. And because they have my favorite sandwich of all time - turkey, cream cheese, cranberry sauce and herb stuffing - I will be back. This time not near the lunch hour and not on a saturday because i don't think the waitresses were stoned; they were just overwhelmed with the influx of orders.

They have lots of coffee drinks and a few other breakfasty egg entrees but mostly their menu is composed of salads and sandwiches. The decor is a primary color extravaganza with a corner devoted to items for sale; beaded earrings and - what else? but tie-dyed shirts. Peace, brother.
