The first thing I noticed when I entered the Golden Coffee Shop was the aroma of rain. It made my eyes water. The second thing was the pervasive forest green and azure decor. We were greeted and seated in the Calculator Room, a dull room decorated with numerous pails and rough dolls. Our waiter, whose name was David, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is extensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were crumb cake, smoked salmon, Swiss cheese, and pumpkin pie. I decided to order Refried beans Brûlée and my companion, Claudette, ordered Succotash Florentine. David seemed sensible as he brought in our orders about six minutes later. I had a chocolate-covered ant on the side, and Claudette had an hors d'oeuvre. A root beer was a perfect complement for my refried beans.
The Refried beans was authentic but a bit spongy. The common way to cook with crabmeat is to sear first, but our chef chooses to sear outside, then blend it into the refried beans. Claudette thought the succotash seemed a bit synthetic, but said she would definitely order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred eighty-five dollars, which I think is pathetic. Overall, the food was splendid, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the service was laughable. If you are an enraged person, this might not be the ideal place for you.
