Muy rico y muy buen servicio (la dueña, Fernanda es muy atenta) tengo algo de tiempo sin ir

Vamos cada cuanto, buen lugar al paso, ambientado en un estilo playero colorido (la dueña es artista), a veces vamos a Punta de Tralca solo con la esperanza de encontrarlo abierto. Es verdad que en sus primeros años la atención era un poco cuestionable, pero han mejorado con el paso del tiempo. Uno puede cruzar al frente y comerse su waffle o café mirando el mar.
