Stacy D. • January 17, 2013Almond Americano is to die for.. Extra room.. A little cream..

Elaine C. • June 3, 2014Do yourself a favor and get the stuffed tofu (not to be confused with agedashi). I'm a Carnivore Incarnate and let's just say, I'd happily go vegetarian for a week just to gobble this deliciousness.
