The next time you’re choosing where to dine, you may want to experience the out-of-the-ordinary taste and atmosphere of the Wabash Triangle Cafe.

It is an interesting restaurant that is a great addition to our neighborhood selection of dining.

As my friend and I walked into the Cafe, our eyes opened wide. “Where should we sit?” was the question.

The Cafe has an interesting array of different tables and chairs.

We chose a small table and sat down.

The people were very friendly.

We took our time in ordering.

The selection was interesting.

We decided to get the “Veggie Pineapple Pizza,” the “Toast Hawaii” and a “Caesar Salad.” Unsure of what these items would really taste like, we waited for our food. Shortly after, we were served and pleasantly surprised by how delicious everything was.

The “Toast Hawaii” was a baked dish of Texas Toast topped with ham, pineapple, cherries, and cheese.

It sounded a bit weird, but it was a good combination.

The “Veggie Pita Pizza” was a piece of pita covered with vegetable and cheese.

We both enjoyed our entrees.

The salad was also good — a simple Caesar Salad.

Each entree was a large portion, especially for the price.

A meal for two would cost you between $15-20, including drinks and tip.

The menu includes a variety of sandwiches, cold and hot, from $3.50 to $4.95, and the entrees range from several Vegetarian specialties to a Strip Steak for $5.95. Salads and soups (including French Onion Soup) are also available.

The restaurant has a large selection of coffees, including Espresso, Latte, Cappuccino, Borgia and more.

It also has a room designated for diners who want a place for smoking.

There is a large bar, and beer, wine, and Wassail are offered, along with many non-alcoholic beverages, including several juices and bottled H20. Finishing our meal, we took a look at the furniture and decorations that fill the restaurant. Near us were chairs perfect for lounging while drinking coffee or enjoying a musician play.

A recording by THE CURE was playing while we ate lunch.

But the Wabash Triangle Cafe frequently offers live performances by local musicians and small theatre presentations.

I look forward to returning to attend some of these musical events.

To find out what’s happening when, call 721-4112. Different photographs and artworks hang from the wall. Behind the stage is a painting of two Indians and a quote by Mark Twain.

To us, it seemed like someone had made their dream come true.

They had fun with making their restaurant be what they wanted it to be. Not conforming to the mainstream, the restaurant maintains an extremely comfortable atmosphere.

I recommend that you put it on your list for places to eat.

It is definitely different and something new.
