lovin cup

we tried lovin cup today for lunch. here's my take:
the food is basic cafe fare...salads, sandwiches, pizza, and coffees...nothing too crazy. the food isn't bad. nothing great, but not bad. i'd go back there if someone else really wanted to, but i don't think i'd make a point to.

i had the "i'm hot for teacher." sounds funny at first. until you realize their entire menu is made up of names that don't even hint at what the food actually is. not only are the meals themselves named this way, but the groups of foods are too...for example, "unplugged" means "cold sandwiches." it's pretty obnoxious considering you need to seriously read the entire menu to determine what you want.

...couple the above weird food names with the menu display and it takes a good ten minutes just to read the menu. the menu is on the wall above the register written on a good 20 old picture frames. and in hard to read text. annoying.

the menu wouldn't be so annoying if you didn't have to order at a counter and instead had a waiter.

my coffee was kinda lame. frankly at this day and age if you're charging $4 for coffee, it's expected to be really good. mine was subpar.

and it was pricey. $20 for two sandwiches and a coffee.
