Paige and I have lunch or dinner here at least once a week. They have a limited menu of pastas, salads, and desserts, but people come here for the specials of the day. The proprietress and chef, Ona Harris, is known for her amazing and unique recipes that use only the freshest ingredients. Just last week, we had her seared scallops and sautéed spinach. It was so heavenly, I was sorely tempted to have one more order. It’s no wonder she’s kept her high Zagat ratings. We go way back with Ona. Paige and I used to babysit Ona’s precocious daughter, Charity, and we love her to pieces. Jake actually did a remodel of her house on Reese Street. And Charlie used to do her taxes. I’m embarrassed (though really grateful) to say that she’s instructed her staff to give us a huge discount whenever we dine at her place. As usual, the café is crowded and I have to circle around the block for parking on the street. After a five minute walk in my high heels, I silently curse myself for choosing to dress up.
