A Sprig Of Cilantro Would Have Been Nice

Well, this is what happens when you’ve been spoiled by other restaurants and then you go to a place like Salt & Pepper. Now, the waiters and waitresses were friendly and so was the owner. Just glancing over the customers in the restaurant you could tell that some of those people have been dining there for years. It seems as if Salt & Pepper is loved by the locals.
There’s a huge wall of photographs from customers in the back of the restaurant.
However, you don’t serve a customer an omelette that looks like this.


How come the chef didn’t place the omelette in the center of the plate with a few sprigs of cilantro and a sliced orange or something ? How come the waitress didn’t at least center the damned thing while she was in route to our table. My husband tasted the omelette and said it was good....but he said it after he stared at it for a few minutes. I felt bad for him. Oh the agony of having to eat something slapped on the side of your plate without any care of how it looked. It’s all about presentation folks. For an establishment that has been in existence for over 20 years , they should have known better than this. The mini syrup decanter on our table was sticky and dripping with syrup. Yuck ! And the ketchup bottle was about a quarter full. This establishment has potential. It really does.
In any event, I must say that the waiters paid attention to when my coffee was low, because ya’ll know how I feel about my coffee and flavored cream. They were consistent with refilling my coffee. Prices are very reasonable $5 to $10. Breakfast is served all day although when I ordered a Belgian Waffle the waitress had to go check to see if the waffle iron was on ? Hmmmm... Anyhow, if you're interested in Salt & Pepper, they're located at 1849 W Orangethorpe in Fullerton, CA. 714.871.8650
