The Mad Herbalist Reviews
My $12.50 tuna melt consisted of a single slice of bread cut in half, topped with a small amount of tuna with a small amount of melted cheese, served with a garish amount of chips (maybe to compensate for half a sandwich? I went away hungry.
Companion had avocado toast - TWO slices of spread bread cut in half, topped with a bit of spring mix. Period.
Her toast was thin and flat, and she went away hungry too.
Time to improve the menu.
I loved it great experience 💕
