Meet sweetiepie.... imagine your 9 years old and piecing together your dream restaurant then add a dash wacky, touch of chic and pinch of over the top.
A giant gold bird cage in the window, pink quilted banquettes, marble floors and bar, mirrored walls and ceilings, soda fountains, ice cream parlor chairs and charming older gentleman with fresh white shirts and little black bow ties.
I can really only liken the expience to having room service at your favorite five star hotel in LA, NY, London or any other cosmopolitan destination of your choice meets Serendipity. Tablewares consist of silver, crystal, linens, and candelabras. The fare is classic American.
I had chicken noodle soup and a grilled cheese. The chicken noodle soup was light and not full of sodium with nice sized pieces of shredded chicken, long stands of thin spaghetti and tiny cubed carrots and celery. The grilled cheese was kraft American cheese slices melted on white bread with the crusts cut off. The bread was more toast like in texture and was dry and not greasy like most grilled cheese sandwiches.

So far they have been written up in Vogue and they'll be in the NY times tomorrow so check it out!
