taft vegetarian diner, update #2
My intent to get dinner there tonight was thwarted, by lack of selections, and a need for the staff to get the kinks out of the organization/service. No entrees, no soups. Fine, I settled for a sandwich, which comes with a side - and then the sides weren't all available - "but we can give you any vegetable you want!" they said, eagerly. So I went back to the menu to reconsider, and in the meantime, other people ordered - and when they were also urged to get a vegetable, and asked "Is it cooked or raw?" were met with panic on the face of the staff - and then, "Sure, any way you want it."
If I wasn't eager to get home and watch the game - it was already 7:25 - and my hands weren't full, I would bring a book and patience, and be happy to support this welcome addition to the neighborhood. Which is what I would urge you to do, until they have a few more weeks' operation under their belt and things smooth out. I also got the impression that the restaurant is being run as a cooperative, so keep that in mind as well.
