This cafe is located on the first floor of Park Avenue Hotel & Suites, under Rochester Mall. It's just next to Ben & Jerry's which you can easily spot along the main road. I like the white and blue setting in the cafe, which gives off a nice care-free vibe. From where I was seated within, it was just greenery outside through the glass windows - a very relaxing setting There were a few choices for the weekday set lunches, which includes a starter (choice of soup or salad), main dish and a cup of

I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion of my Caesar salad. I'm actually very glad that there was no bacon but fruits instead. There were fresh strawberries and peaches, very nice buttery & crunchy croutons, slices of boiled egg (just nicely boiled, not overcooked) and plenty of fresh lettuce all topped with a Caesar sauce that was not too heavy but just right in taste. One of the best salads I've had for a while Actually I was pretty full by the time I finished my salad
For my main, I had the oven-baked chicken thigh. This is another winner! The chicken was well-marinated with herbs, tender & juicy. The skin was roasted to a nice crisp - even I could not resist stealing a bite from it haha, which I did not regret though. (I usually don't take chicken skin). The accompanying mushroom sauce was nice & the poached vegetables done just well. Not to forget the tasty, smooth whipped potato too.
My dining companion ordered the grilled sirloin with fries which were crisp & fat, the way I like them. I did not try the sirloin but my friend felt it was quite good. Although slightly charred outside on some areas, the middle was slightly pink.
Hence I'm showing the picture of the dish as well for your viewing pleasure.
For our sets, they were priced at $16.90. I was prepared to pay the $20 (including service charge & gst) and was again pleasantly surprised that the sets were actually nett prices. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal here and feel it's really worth it for the price.
