A quick, healthy cafeteria-style meal
“Nothing too fancy but healthy and generous portions that'll satisfy your tummy regardless of whether you're a carnivore or herbivore”
New American · Salad
The Culver City outpost of the cafeteria-style California chain, where Roger's go-to hot plate pairs mashed potatoes and a salad with steak or tuna, washed down with a pot of Bombay Chai.
Start with steak or tuna hot plate or happy Vegan salad or bombay Chai, and check the restaurant’s current menu before you go.

“Nothing too fancy but healthy and generous portions that'll satisfy your tummy regardless of whether you're a carnivore or herbivore”
Cafeteria-style, mostly organic/sustainable sourcing. Roger's go-to hot plate pairs mashed potatoes, bread and a salad with steak or tuna (the chipotle BBQ chicken he found bland); the Happy Vegan salad is his vegetarian pick. Finishes with a pot of Bombay Chai.
