cafeteria

I took Mimi out to Cafeteria tonight! I’ve been wanting to try it out ever since they replaced Pings (RIP).


Roasted pork belly, green papaya salad, and seared scallops. Perfect.


Veal parmigiana and spaghetti bolognese with rapini. The bolognese was perfect, but the parmigiana was a bit disappointing. It was exactly like any other dried out parmigiana I’ve ever had.


Mimi’s Moroccan lamb shank. I should have ordered this! It had really great flavour and textures.

All in all, Cafeteria was good. The parmigiana was disappointing, but then again, so was every other one I’ve ever had, so maybe I just don’t like parmigiana. In theory, it should be awesome! Breaded and fried meat, sauce, and cheese? Amazing, right? Apparently not.
