Ināʻoe eʻimi ana i wahi no kahiʻai maʻamau eʻai ai i Santa Fe kahi eʻike ai nā poʻe o ka'āina e'ākoakoa, mai nānā aku ma mua o ka Chocolate Maven. ʻO kahi cafe kahi wahi kaulana loa no nā uluna,ʻo ia hoʻi nā'āpana palaoa i nā Sābati, a hāʻawi pū nō hoʻi i ka lā awakea, a me nā lā i kohoʻia,ʻo ke kiʻekiʻe.
Aia ka Chocolate Maven Bakery a me Cafe ma kahi hale kūʻai nui. He wahi iki ia ma ke ala puni aʻaʻole i loko o ke kaona o Plaza, akā, hiki ke hoʻokuʻuʻia mai ka hauʻoli a me ka manaʻo o ke kūʻana ma waena o ke kākaʻikaʻi huakaʻi.
ʻO ka Maven kahi hana'eneke nui a ma loko o ka cafe,ʻo nā māla liʻiliʻi nui ke hāʻawi aku i kahi leka i ka poʻe kahuʻai me kā lākou hana. E like me ka Boudin Bakery ma ka Pier 39 o Kapalakiko, e nānā ana i ka piʻiʻana o ka palaoa a me nā'ōwili i loko o ka umu he wahi ia o kaʻike ma ke kāpīpīʻana i ka mihinu a iʻole ka sanwī. Mālamaʻia ka meaʻai ma nā meaʻai palaʻai, nā kuki, nā pākani, a me ka piha piha.
E komo i loko o ka cafe, eʻikeʻoe i ka pahu bakake kahi i hōʻikeʻia ai ka waiwai o ka lā. Hoʻokahi pale i loko o nā pūʻulu o nā kuki hou, a ua uhiʻia nā papa i loko o nā pīpī hou, nā pōpō a me nā mea hou. ʻO nā kūpuna i ka hana pono'ī.
He nui ka poʻe e hele i ka cafe e nānā i nā mea kahu i ka hanaʻana i ka hopuʻana i ka mai a e hele koke e noho i kahi noho. Ināʻaʻole i lawa kahi noho ma ka lumi nānā bakena, aia kekahi wahi noho ma luna, a i ka wā kūpono, ma ka papa waho. He maʻalahi a maʻemaʻe ka mea hoʻonaninani, me nā pale kapa lino'ōniʻoniʻo a me nā paia melemele'ōmaʻomaʻo.
ʻO ka pahuhopu kahi kahi: ma kaʻai.
Ua pōlele mākou ma ke kakahiaka kakahiaka kakahiaka nui o Kāpena, ua kohoʻo ia i ka cafe no ka mea he nui ka hua o ka momona mai ka Market of Farmer's Market. Loaʻa i ka cafe nā meaʻaiʻole, meaʻai a me nā meaʻonoʻole, i kēlā me kēia manawa. Ua ho'āʻo koʻu hoa i nā puaʻo Copanhagen ($ 14), i loko oʻelua mau huawai kūʻokoʻa liʻiliʻi pihaʻole, ua hoʻomaʻemaʻeʻia ka molekālika Atlantic a me ka mīnoi hollanda ma kahi mueteni haole i hanaʻia i loko o ka hale.
Aia kekahi mau meaʻala kakahiaka, he mea nuiʻo Maven no kaʻualaʻuala i'ōwiliʻia a'ōwili ma ke kahua. Ua maikaʻi loa ke kīʻaha, me nā hua i hoʻomaʻemaʻe maikaʻiʻia a me ka wai māmā.
Ua ho'āʻo wau i ka Pōʻalima Pōʻalima, he hui pū me nā huaʻai i kēlā me kēiaʻano, nā mea'āpana kakahiaka, nā meaʻono a me ka kohoʻana o ka sohi, ka puaʻa, ka ham a me ka puaʻa puaʻaleʻa a me ka bacon ($ 12). Aia ka'usa i ka hale i loko o ka'ōmole'ōmaʻomaʻo. Ua maikaʻi nā mea a pau,ʻaʻohe mea manaʻo, akā he meaʻono loa. ʻO ke kīʻaha o nā meaʻai ka hōkū o kēlā me kēia pā.
Ua lohi ka brunch o ka Lāpule inā ua nui nā mea meaʻai, aʻo kaʻoihana maikaʻi loa. ʻO ka Chocolate Maven ma ko mākou pono e hele i ka papa inoa no ka manawa mākou i Santa Fe, aʻaʻole wale wale no kaʻaina kakahiaka. ʻO nā mōhaiʻai e pili ana i nā kaloka, nā salakeke, nā pāʻuku liʻiliʻi a me nā pizza. ʻO ka hopena hoʻokahi wale nō e hikiʻole ke puka i ka puka me ka loaʻaʻole o ka empanada a iʻole ke kīʻaha aʻelua paha, no laila ināʻoe e nānā ana i kāu calories, hiki paha iāʻoe ke kū'ē i ka ho'āʻo. Ināʻaʻoleʻoe, he pono ke nānā i kahiʻano.
