Croissant, almond croissant, are my personal favourites, I've heard about everything else here being good, but I cant get past these 2 items and they have ruined them for me at other places, because now when I get an almond croissant anywhere Im assuming its like beau coup, but it's not beau coup.

Get the Eggs Benedict, its good and consistent, expect a line up on a weekend. Zen is a local staple for hung over kids, hipsters and common folk alike. I like the 1/2 and 1/2 order of the chorizo and the flo benedict greek eggs benedict and a latte (they are big) , but that's me.

OK this place is a long walk, or a quick bus/cab ride away.. everything I've had here is good but the Aburi sushi, is a return experience.. also good value as they do aburi combos where more places make you order by piece

Pho Sho! Good Pho, papaya salad and sticky dumplings (tapioca ones are neat) Pho without all the stuff that you might not want to eat.. They don't do the trip, tendon, etc that some pho places do.
