"I ordered the dumplings at 88 Forty Eight, but couldn’t eat them because they were too spicy, even though the staff assured me they weren’t. I’m a big fan of dumplings, and these were by far the worst I’ve ever had. Very disappointing. I wouldn’t recommend spending your money here."

3/5

While passing through, I decided to stop in for my third breakfast and first coffee of the day. Unfortunately, I experienced the same issue with staff as I have recently—when working in a customer-facing role, it's important to stay focused on guests, especially since they can see what’s happening behind the counter. This is a restaurant, not a makeup salon. I ordered eggs Benedict, and my partner had a halloumi burger with onion rings. The coffee was good, and the mains arrived promptly, but I was a bit disappointed with the choices—more creativity with the bread would be great; perhaps Turkish or sourdough instead of the usual store-bought options. Flavor wasn’t the problem, just the lack...

I tried the salmon eggs benedict, and it was quite generous with a hefty portion of salmon. The eggs were perfectly soft and runny. Since the hollandaise sauce wasn’t homemade, I opted to have it on the side, which worked well. I’ve also had their ham, cheese, and tomato toasties on my way to work—great bread and surprisingly tasty fillings. Overall, the place exceeded my expectations. It’s pretty standard fare, which is actually a good thing for this area of the valley right now. Plus, it’s definitely a great spot for people-watching in the morning.
