East West Cafe and Some Great Food

In our travels, we get to pick some of the best spots in the state to eat and drink.  A benefit for sure.

In the case of East West Cafe, a little bonus is that they carry a few of our beers already.  In fact, they carry both Yanjing and Saigon.  Exciting to be sure, as both brands are actually really good, but largely under-appreciated here.

East West Cafe is an Asian fusion restaurant located in Plantation, Florida.  A small spot in an unassuming place.  The exterior looks like any other strip plaza restaurant, with a little signage and a nice newspaper review posted outside.

I looked this spot up because it was on our list of restaurants who had ordered brew from our portfolio, so I wanted to see what it was all about.  The Urbanspoon reviews are below:

Need I say more?  If the reviews are true, we are in for a good lunch.  I went in with Renegade Rip who was down to help out with an event we had at the World of Beer in Coral Springs, so I figured at least I'd get to see a few dishes.



When we got there, about 1:30, you'd figure things would be winding down from lunch.  Obviously they have a dedicated clientele, because they were still doing some business!  We were greeted by a very nice Latin(?) girl with a great smile who got us seated and asked us if we'd like a drink.  A Yanjing for Rip and a Saigon for me please........

She came back with our drinks and took our order.  In the meantime, more and more folks continued to file in.  Then more, then more.  Right on!


We ordered what we knew.  Some spring rolls, noodle dishes, and some rice.  All of it was great.  We ended up with a lot of food in front of us and were licking the plates.  Every single ingredient is obviously fresh in their dishes and the portion sizes are huge.

When we got the bill, I was shocked to see that what we ordered were actually lunch portions!  Unbelievable!

Several more pictures are included here for you to check out what they have.  Also included are a few links to some reviews on the restaurant.

By looking at these reviews, you can clearly see that I wasn't smoking the area's best weed when we were eating.  This place is legit.  Service, food, atmosphere, everything.  

If you are in that area, definitely give them a look.  I can't think of one negative thing to say about this spot.  Add to this, they carry some of our product - diggit.  Cheers!
