That's too bad. I will keep that in mind next time we go. I like the
chicken sandwich at Two Fools Cafe, too - but DH has had a bad meal
there. Haven't found any restaurant in HMB that is 100% reliable yet.
The Chinese restaurant that was where Red Ginger is used to be good and
inexpensive too, but I guess they coundn't swing it.
