“The HB Daisy is ingeniously designed so that you can order at the counter with your food prepared in the kitchen OR you can choose from gloriously prepared food on platters inside the glass cases in front of you. Colorfully painted counters hold an array of baked goods and packaged foods. Again, wonderful, well thought-out design shows in the side space because a “rounded feel” comes with the banquette seating, with comfy plastic chairs at each table.  Note the timeless, marble tile on the floor. So it is perfect for a leisurely meal or a quick one.  It is truly a combination of the best of east and west coast.”
