Today is my Mom's 75th birthday.
She has food allergies, so I expect to pay more for a good cake.
I ordered a small chocolate cake with vanilla frosting that's also gluten/soy/corn free. With the extra $15 for corn-free powdered sugar I paid $79. I told them it was for a celebration and asked them to put a 75 on top. They told me that, due to the ingredient limitations, they couldn't color the frosting and that the 75 would be white on white. I approved that and told them to just make it look nice.
This is what I got. Did a professional decorator do this? It's yellow (is that even safe to eat based on what they told me on the phone when I ordered?). It's not proportional. It isn't even remotely celebratory looking. I could've done it better myself. I'm so disappointed. 3 stars because at least the cake is good.
We were looking for a place just like this for our meeting- lovely service, decent food, and the ability to chat without a lot of interruptions. Gluten free waffles sealed the deal! It wasn't the best food I've ever had but it did the job and we had a lovely meeting.
So much good stuff. If you can live with being a pretentious, gluten-free, almond milk, free range, over educated, prius driving, composting, making your own sourdough type person... and have a trust fund to support your trip. I mean, I guess that is most of the Proctor dwellers anyway.
Bright space, bright friendly staff and sincere sentiment! Coffee Angels!!! Needed the coffee but needed your sweet words much more!!! Gluten-free options!!! Hurray!!!
Wow, some of the best vegan sandwiches I ever had. The pearl sandwich was delicious. Loved the presentation on a tray with salad. Lots of vegan options in the menu to choose from. They also care to provide gluten free and keto friendly dishes. Great location at 7 seas Brewery to pair up your food with probably some of the best beer in Tacoma/Seattle area.
Their gluten free pastries that are not packaged come in from the bakery in the same boxes as regular pastries and are stored with regular pastries. cross contamination central!
Omgoodness!! Our daughter & her husband invited us for breakfast to this awesome lil place because, first of all, it was her birthday & second, it was her FAVORITE place to eat. It's reservation only & I understand why.
From the moment we walked in we were greeted like we were friends. As we were seated, food was coming out & it was beautiful! Yes, I said beautiful. Works of art! The watress explains what the dish is as our mouth waters just looking at it 🤤. I cannot wait to order! We were given water, our choice but not just any water. It was Cucumber, lemon & Lime. Talk about refreshing!
Apparently we're in the season of summer as far as the menu goes. Lucky for us 😀! I couldn't decide what to get but I'm a French toast buff & settled on the Blueberry Bread Pudding French Toast & for good measure topped it off with their famous Candied Bacon 🤤. Ya'll, it comes with REAL maple syrup, whip cream & a lil dollup of vanilla bean ice cream with a strawberry on top 🥰. Hubby ordered (candied) Bacon Wrapped Breakfast Burrito & omgoodness, it was gorgeous! Picture worthy. And was it huge 😯! Weighing in at (I heard) 4lbs? Our son-in-law had the Lobster Bomb. I didn't taste but boy I wanted to! Lol daughter had the Gluten Free Mushroom Xtra Shroom Biscuit Hash. Wow, I've never seen a more beautiful hash in my life. The chef brought out his mushrooms, showed them to everyone. Talk about fresh & colorful! I don't care for mushrooms but when I go back, I want some 😀!
Anyway, have you ever had food that tasted as good as it looked? I can say that I have & it was here @ Tibbitts Fern Hill.
It's a lil pricey, but oh so worth it!!
the best coffee shop in all of Tacoma. The spiced chai is actually spicy and it's so delicious. They have a mix of gluten free and vegan pastries and they keep their gluten free pastries separate from their regular pastries so it's celiac safe. Highly recommend!
