I tried these spots a week ago on Tuesday at lunch. All things to go. The first one I had a coffee when they were across from Rollins (May 20, 2022). Now it's next to Athena Chicken. The second is aside it. The third is closer to Lee Rd where Copper Rocket is. I went there when it was I-Pho 2 (April 21, 2016). Now its renamed. I tried these spots because plan A went south.
Kos Coffee - I tried a seriously overpriced waffle for $9. It was good. Made into 6 ajoined hearts. Maple syrup. It is Norwegian. $12 sandwiches too. And overnight oats and other breakfast iteams. Some seats. Neither fish nor fowl. I don't think they take the food side seriously enough. Its like a Starbucks. Therefore, I can't recommend.
Maitland Chocolate Factory - Next to Kos. Chocolate was ok. I had a $3.25 dark chocolate bar. Thin. They have dipped stuff and gelato. No gelato there though. Open for a few years.
City Pho and Grill - I had a sad Supreme banh mi for $9. Rubbery pork sausage, dull pate, tough pork roll. Short, non-baguette roll. No fish sauce/vinegar. They have 25 starters ($4-$16). Calamari, shumai, fried pancakes. Rice platters ($14-$22). Clay pots. 17 specialties ($16-$21). Fried rice. 5 veg ($15-$16). Pork, beef, chicken, pork chop, pork and egg meatball, shrimp, shredded pork. Sake, beer, wine. Shakes. Dessert. Happy hour. Gray/white color scheme. Large mural of Bui Viet walking street in Saigon. Around 12 tables. Open for 8 years. I'm not sure if it is the same ownership. It was acceptable.
* I told you what I passed up in the last post.
