marketplace cafe

It had been about 4 years since I've seen my friend, Mineko.

We've both seen "rough days" over the years, so I was happy that she had some time to meet up.

Lunch was at Marketplace Cafe inside of Nordstrom. I remember eating here when it first opened but hadn't been back since.

The ordering system was kinda unorganized.

And with all the chaos, it was really noisy in there too.

Anyway, she had the niçoise salad and I ordered the cilantro lime chicken salad.

They were both huge!

I really enjoyed this salad with lots of cilantro and pumpkin seeds in it.

Even though it was really noisy in there, it was nice catching up with her.

After lunch, we had some sweets and coffee, which I'll tell you more about in my next post.

Thanks for lunch Mineko!

So nice that you both could catch up on things. And what better place than a shopping center (I dunno if I could manage to keep the plastic from melting... :-P)
