Our summer vacation commenced on July 4 as we dashed out the door not looking back and remembering to bring Lou's milk cup, which was left to fester in a sealed up apartment enveloped in full blazing NYC summer heat. We left Harlem behind for Los Angeles pastures including immediate cocktails and barbecued kalbi. It's only in the summer that you work to keep yourself busy with such leisurely activities – making peach cobbler due to an abundance of mom's garden grown peaches, swimming at the pool for a number of reasons and figuring out what the night's drink will be to go with whatever's being grilled. Lou has discovered the beauty of having space, a backyard and a vehicle. Staying with my parents is always (usually, no, for the most part 😉 ) a delight and there is no place like home like their backyard next to the hot grill and fire pit going on a 7th s'more.
Gramps Nakamura
My Gramps died on June 29, 2012 and my sister and I will always remember and laugh about how he used to take us to Fun Factory giving us $20 each for tokens and sitting for hours at the machine where you put the token in at the top hoping it will slide down strategically into the pile pushing tokens off the edge of the cliff, and how he used to take us shopping at Pearlridge mall or Ala Moana and hang outside the store smoking several of his Capri Slims, and how he would pay me $20 to either wash his car or sweep the 7-10 rocks that made their way on the sidewalk back to where they came from, and of course that one time when he took my neighborhood buddies and I, piled into the trunk of his white Mazda pickup, to Sports Authority so we could cash in a jar of pennies for a street hockey related item. He was always there for us whether we needed a ride somewhere or if the shaved ice truck made a spontaneous stop or if we needed a reminder that we needed to "study hard now." I'm glad this picture was taken and that we were able to see him one last time in January.
Lou Turns 2
It's incredible how having a kid makes time go by so quickly. One moment you're able to bring them to a matinee since all they do is breastfeed and sleep and the next thing you know they are running around a zoo shouting "gogogo" on the search for "Babar." Lou had a weekend full of festivities in Seattle including 2 candle blowings and her first trip to the zoo. She partied hard (infinite toys at Luc's house + sugar, no wait that was me + no napping) with her friends Luc, Adam and Max on Friday, hung out at Aunty Dana's on Saturday night and observed an Orangutan hiding himself in a burlap bag at Woodland Park Zoo in Fremont on Sunday. Look out Papa, she's growing (tall)!
Golden Gardens Park, Ballard
Enjoying a sunny day in Seattle is finely celebrated by going to the beach. The water may be still be frigid in June but when the sun comes out, it's GLORIOUS! Couple that with a sautéed prawn, garlic tapenade and caramelized onion sandwich from nearby Caribbean food outpost Paseo and you've got yourself a winning day.
Paseo Caribbean Restaurant – Ballard
6226 Seaview Ave NW
Grande Assiette De Pere
What better way to celebrate Father's Day then to put Lou to sleep in the stroller before heading to Le Pichet in downtown Seattle for a generous plate of Charcuterie, baguette, house smoked salmon with a spiced yogurt bulgur salad and several glasses of rosé. It's not everyday you please a French person with French food in America and the chicken liver terrine, pork rillettes, pork pâté, beef tongue and saucisse lyonnaise certainly did their tricks this afternoon. It was all so delicious and Lou gave us a break all through lunch up until we made it to the park.
There is something so beautiful about the way Lou smiles when she hears Olivier getting home from work. She squeals with delight for papa and runs to him before giving him the tightest hug ever and nestles her little head into his neck. They have such a special bond and it's amazing to see, especially the way she cradles his head and plays with his face when he carries her on his shoulders or the way they spoon while sneaking in more rest on a weekend morning. Olivier is incredibly gentle, loving and patient and It's not enough just to say thank you on just today (hope the charcuterie helped)! Tchin Tchin to our amazing papa!
Zou Bisous Bisous
Merci Mamie
Street Photographer & Scourer Extraordinaire. Champion Lou Watcher & Wrangler. Smuggler of Champagne and a kilo of Beaufort cheese. From NYC to Seattle and back, we caught up with Maman and had great times. She met a few of my family members, picnicked on the High Line, took the ferry to Chez Ikea, went down to the 9/11 memorial (by herself), rode on a boat, barbecued, ate bagels and lots of PB&J and watched some live living room salsa dancing. Olivier and I even got to see a bunch of movies and have a couple of nights on the town, yes! Merci encore and we'll miss you terriblement xo

|Girl Ellen liked basketball,
tube socks, and pony tails
|Girl Jeannie liked hanging
around on the uneven bars
with no socks
1) When I'm writing/reading/studying I prefer:
b) music
2) In the morning, I'm:
a) out of bed as early as possible, eager to face the day, even on the weekends
3) In the evening, I'm:
a) in bed by nine—if I can stay up that late.
b) just hitting my stride. Who wants to play some Twister?
4) When I hit the big city, I like to:
a) find a bar and have a pint of local beer.
b) find the nearest Macy's and go shopping and then have a pint of local beer.
5) I tend to collect and feed many animals.
a) true
c) false
6) I______ Gallipoli-like endings:
a) avoid at all costs
b) embrace
7) I work best under pressure.
a) True. But I hate this about myself and fantasize about being ahead of schedule.
8) When faced with a computer challenge, I:
a) eat something sweet and then locate a teen to fix the problem.
b) roll up my sleeves and fire up Google to solve it myself.
9) The best dancing song ever is:
a) Abba's Dancing Queen
b) Abba's Dancing Queen
10) I prefer my exercise to come in the form of:
b) running down a country road (on purpose--not being chased by a wild bull)
11) When I see barbecued goat on the menu, I am reminded of:
a) my wedding (nothing like cabrito to celebrate a union)
b) how much I enjoy pasta
a) Dean Winchester
b) Raylan Givens
(c) who are these guys?
13) High heels:

15) The hero type I can't resist:

b) stoic cowboy
Bonus. The last song/album I bought is most like:
(b) Anything at all by Eric Clapton
Your nature is contradictory—you like to dress up and wear high heels, but are equally comfortable in disreputable jeans and a flannel shirt working on a barbed wire fence. You enjoy being physically active, but your favorite pastimes are sedentary. You like hiking and shopping equally well.
Your tastes run toward classic rock, classic television and classic movies. You love a good cowboy story especially ones with a modern twist, such as Justified. You like stoic, sometimes unpredictable heroes with a sense of humor.
You are not super comfortable with technology, but find the internet an excellent way to procrastinate. You work best under pressure and if you have just enough to do, you take on one extra project to create pressure.
You like your beer dark and your endings happy.
If you are an Ellen, you're more familiar with brunch than you are with dawn and you're most energetic after dark. You're a natural multi-tasker so you need to occupy part of your brain with music to get the focus you need for writing or studying. On the rare occasion that you pick up the dust cloth or window cleaner, you turn the music up louder to drown out your internal protest that you were meant for the pampered life.
You like life comfortable and uncomplicated. A good beer, a bowl of homemade ravioli, your favorite jeans, and a ramble with your best four-legged friend are all right in your comfort zone. That's not to say you don't like exploring new cities or a night on the town, you're just likely to seek out the local hang outs and wear a reliable favorite when you go.
High-tech is a comfortable tool and you enjoy the puzzle of working out new ways to accomplish tasks. Pressure helps you focus and sparks your energy and creativity, but you can't help thinking there must be a more efficient way to get things done.
Your taste in music runs to pop, your favorite movies include wounded men (even Captain Von Trapp was sad before Maria came along), and you prefer your heroes (romance and television) to be care takers, even if they drive muscle cars and shoot pool (or shotguns loaded with rock salt).
Feel free to add your own defining question or description of your "character." We love getting to know everyone better.

Banned Books Week!
Support the Freedom to Read
Challenged for: "offensive language, racism, religious viewpoint, sex education, sexually explicit, violence, unsuited to age group."
I am never going to agree with reducing access to books, so I doubt you would find it worthwhile for me to nitpick each reason given for doing so. But I will say, it seems very backward to me that a book is challenged for "racism" not for promoting racism, but for depicting it being perpetrated against a character. Are we just supposed to pretend it doesn't exist?!
Good for: Many people have found this book extremely compelling. It has a good story about overcoming prejudice and hardship and finding a place to belong, and the fact that it is told in both prose and comics makes it a good pick for reluctant readers. But Alexie's other young adult novel, Flight, was more to my particular taste.

The number of people claiming unemployment benefit fell last month, as the total out of work inched back below the 2.5 million mark.
The claimant count dropped by 4,100 people in December to 1.46 million, the Office for National Statistics reported. The ONS also revised November's claimant count figure to show a 3,200 decline.
City economists has expected the claimant count to be broadly flat in December, as hiring by private companies was countered by the government's cuts to public spending.
However, the number of people who have been claiming Jobseeker's Allowance for up to six months increased by 7,200 to reach 960,300.
Ross Walker of RBS warned that employment showed little signs of recovery, a year after Britain officially emerged from recession.
And Howard Archer of IHS Global Insight cautioned that unemployment is still likely to rise this year, due to lacklustre economic growth and increasing job losses in the public sector.
The wider unemployment count, the ILO measure, showed that 49,000 people lost their jobs in the three months to November. That put the unemployment rate at 7.9%, up from 7.7% in the preceding quarter. The total number of people out of work came in at 2.498m, down from the 2.502m hit last month, but higher than the 2.448m over the June-August period.
There were also signs that many people would like to work more than they are able to. The ONS reported that the number of employees and self-employed people who were working part-time because they could not find a full-time job increased by 26,000 in the three months to November, to 1.16 million. This is the highest figure since comparable records began in 1992.

Pall Mall Medical - for all your private healthcare needs, whether you are self-paying or have private medical insurance.
" I had a labiaplasty performed Mr Siddiqui at Newton le willows. From walking in on the day of surgery, I was made to feel completely relaxed and given excellent treatment from start to finish. I had previously had two consultations with Mya and spire who both refused to do the procedure under local anaesthetic. With Mr Siddiqui I had local and sedation, and the procedure was excellent, i felt completely relaxed throughout, with a nurse sat next to me holding my hand, I hardly felt a thing. Fantastic surgeon and clinic. Lovely staff, would highly recommend to anyone. "
Anonymous 28.I0.19, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" Met Dr Dixit regarding my 3 year old son's developmental delays. The Doctor was professional and engaging right from the very start. He was thorough and dedicated a large amount of time to providing us with feedback and advice regarding our options. I would have no hesitation in using Dr Dixit again or recommending him to others. "

" Danielle took my bloods today for a private hormone test, considering I am a self confessed coward concerning needles it was completely painless, given her professional approach. We then discussed diet to which she was exceptionally knowledgeable further convincing me that Pall Mall was a sage choice. "

" I was able to get an appointment immediately. Dr Dixit spent a long time with our premature baby and provided comprehensive feedback. We were very impressed with both his expertise and empathy. We would definitely recommend this Dr. Thank you"

" I've had multiple phlebotomy appointments with Cristina and she is by far the most skilled and gentle healthcare assistant who has ever done my blood draw. I would definitely recommend her for someone who isn't comfortable with the procedure. Cheers Cristina!"
Niall, 22th October 2019
" I phoned the clinic for an urgent appointment after looking for a kids specialist for my son who is 6. The reception staff mere amazing. I was seen the same day and I was very very relieved. I had been worrying myself to no end. Dr Dixit from the moment he met my son created a good rapport. Not only with my 6 year old but also 9 near old putting us all at ease. His friendly professional approach went a long way. He understood my worries as an over-protective mum and any time I apologised for being so he said it was OK. He never once made me feel silly but logically and medically addressed every concern I had about my precious son. He also looked at diet, lifestyle and also family history of myself and my son. He also looked at issues I was worried about from a behavioural point of view. He had a natural ability to make both kids laugh while doing his job and extract the info needed. Trust me not a lot of Drs can. It made my son feel included too. He did not rush anything. From after care point of view he reassured me of next steps and what to look out for in terms of symptoms. I would highly recommend this lovely gentleman if you have any concerns about your children. Thank you Dr Dixit , I think I may sleep tonight."
Daxa - 15th October 2019 , Private Paediatrics
" The staff have made the whole experience so easy. The support and care I received has been excellent. Sarah was brilliant at answering all my questions and getting things arranged for me, and nothing was too much trouble. From initial consultation to aftercare, she's been fantastic! The nursing staff, anaesthetist and of course Mr Prasad were amazing! They put me completely at ease, reassuring me and supporting me through the whole procedure and really looked after me. I can't thank all the staff at Pall Mall Cosmetics in Newton le Willows enough! I'm delighted with my results and would fully recommend. "
Rachel Lawton, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" I visited for breast augmentation yesterday, 5th October 2019 and it is a procedure I had wanted for about 10years but was too scared to go through with. When I arrived at Pall Mall yesterday the entire team were fantastic from the moment I arrived til the second I left. I was extremely anxious to the point I felt really sick, but the team were amazing at reassuring me and keeping me calm. In the anaesthetic room the anaesthetist and the lady who held my hand (I cant remember her name) were absolutely amazing and made me feel completely safe and actually made the experience enjoyable! I was thoroughly looked after again the second I opened my eyes. I have to say a huge thank you to my surgeon. He is extremely professional, reassuring and gave me complete confidence in the process. Despite being terrified at first the overall experience was incredible, and although Im not even 24 hours post op yet, I have very confidence that the results are going to be amazing. A huge thanks to everyone who looked after me yesterday!"
April, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" I have had two GP appointments at Pall Mall Manchester, both of which have been an extremely helpful and positive experience. I travel over 100 miles to get there so I think that in itself is testament to the quality of service I received and I would definitely recommend their services."

" My wife and I took our daughter to see Dr Kalpesh Dixit a Paediatrician at Pall Mall Medical and were most impressed with the thorough and concise examination he gave her which hopefully has got to her gastric symptoms . There was no rush even though we were in consultation for 40 minutes longer than our consultation should have been his bedside manner was exemplary putting my daughter and ourselves at total ease. The clinic itself is spotless and impressive and the staff were lovely. A full inventory of of the findings and recommendations were sent to our email. Any problems you have medically with your children I would highly recommend you see Dr Dixit. Thanks very much doctor."

" I had a breast reduction at Pall Mall Cosmetics at Newton-Le-Willows on 1st of June. From my initial consultation at Liverpool with Mr Krishnan right through to my final after care appointment the care I received was excellent from the whole team . Helen was always on hand with any questions before the procedure. Maxine who I had my pre-op with and who cared for me on the day along with Sarah both were amazing.. sharing tears of joy, a lot of laughter with myself and my daughter and husband. Maxine and Sarah I cannot thank you enough for making what was a big thing for me to do in my life into a day I will remember with a smile. Last but not least Mr. Krishnan for making me a very happy lady I thank you so much you have given me my life back . Highly recommend Pall Mall, you are all fab !!!!!! 10/10"

" I recently visited Pall Mall Medical for a Kenalog Injection as I have always really struggled with Hayfever !! The whole process from my initial call with Kath, the service I received from the staff on the front desk through the meeting with the GP was amazing. I would highly recommend Pall Mall to anyone looking for private healthcare. "

" Had a Kenalog injection to reduce my hayfever symptoms, the staff were extremely informative and friendly - would highly recommend! "
Tilly Hughes, Hay Fever Injection
" Hello, everyone. I visited Pall Mall Medical (Manchester) on the afternoon of Tuesday 2nd April 2019 for a pre-employment medical (for visa purposes). I can say hand on heart that I had an exceptionally nice and positive experience. I am not generally comfortable being touched by strangers, however well-qualified and authorised they might be (although I recognise that doctors need to sometimes examine their patients this way). Moreover, I dislike needles in me or electrodes stuck on various parts of my body. Having said that, the doctor and nurse in question were so professional that I was remarkably relaxed. Earlier today, I visited the same branch to collect my completed full medical examination report from Samantha Graham (the Bookings Manager) - a perfectly smooth and reassuring affair (including a very courteous follow-up call after I was on my way home to check that everything had been included in the report). Indeed, what a charming and highly professional approach Samantha maintained from my initial enquiry some two weeks ago or so to the end of the process as just outlined. In my opinion, the prices are very reasonable for a private healthcare concern. Perhaps there are cheaper firms out there, but in that case, the quality of customer service/patient care I received more than makes up for that. I wanted a high-quality experience and that is what I got from start to finish. In short, I very highly recommend Pall Mall Medical, and very much wish them continued excellence, and indeed ongoing enhancements, regarding the quality of healthcare provision and customer service. Yours Sincerely, Dr. P. J. Gisbey (CFA SIAff QTS FCMI FCIEA FInstAM DipBStMin BREEAM Associate) PS: i) Thank you, Dr. Tang; ii) Thank you as well, Nurse Chipurici."
Dr. Peter Gisbey, Private GP Services
" From start to finish the Pall Mall Medical team were fantastic! Helen and Sara were brilliant and answered every question I had in the run up to the operation. On arrival Nurse Bev was lovely and ran through everything with Nurse Steph the other other nurse. She helped explain a lot of things for me and after my op walked me through everything I needed. Carole who was part of the operation team was really good to me, she reassured me and held my hand as I went down. Mr Prasad was really nice and helped with everything. The post op has already been arranged and the discharge papers were very informative. Thank you everyone at Pall Mall Medical!"
Emma S, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" I spent one night at the Pall Mall, Newton le Willows. I can say I am definitely impressed by the whole experience. From the very first moment I arrived I was treated like royalty. The medical centre was so clean and very welcoming, all of the staff were very friendly, alert, professional, informative and extremely caring. They gave me so much choice and informed me on everything that was happening/ going to happen. When I woke up I felt great, I had around the clock check ups making sure I was ok and asked if there's anything I needed. Given plenty of food and drinks with good choice. My room was very comfortable, modern and clean. I had everything I needed and a call bell if I wanted something. The staff are all extremely hard working and honest. I couldn't thank the staff enough, including Bev and her team, all of the theatre staff and my surgeon, who helped me during my stay. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. "

" I had breast augmentation with Dr Prasad. I had never had any form of surgery or been under general anesthetic so I was very nervous. The staff were absolutely amazing and the room was spotless!! I have forgotten names but all the staff looked after me and really made me feel comfortable. Even just before I went in for my operation I didn't feel nervous and really trusted the staff. Thank you so much for my positive experience! "
Eleanor Robertson , Pall Mall Cosmetics
" 5 stars! What an amazing place! The staff are so friendly, taking care of me the whole day and answering all the question I had. The rooms are so clean, and the bed is unbelievably comfy. The food they make is delicious, I might come back for another meal next week ???? I was terrified of the surgery, but they calmed me down and reassured me, rightfully so as the pain was nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be! Bev and Danielle were great before and after the opp, so were the anaesthetic guys and of course Dr. Prasad. "
Kitty, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" My second surgery at Pall Mall with Mr Prasad. He is an amazing man who has changed my life. Both times my nurse Beverly was absolutely amazing and made the experience so comfortable and relaxed. Danielle was another nurse who was great! Overall would highly recommend Pall Mall, lovely hospital 5 stars from me! X"

THANK YOU!!"
YONI GOTTLIEB, Pall Mall Medical
" The team at Pall Mall Cosmetics are dedicated, caring and have a clear vision that the patients and their needs are their no 1 priority. The care and attention I received before, during and after surgery from all staff was second to none. The surgical team are very highly experienced and left me in no doubt that I would be happy with the outcome of my procedures. Communication with Sara, the patient coordinator was excellent. She couldnt have helped me more keeping me up to date and always there to answer my queries. Her warm understanding and knowledgeable approach erased all apprehension I may have felt before surgery and as I was having two procedures at the same time it was particularly difficult to coordinate but Sara managed it effortlessly. The pall Mall team are amazing and I would highly recommend them to anyone! Thank you so much."
Susan Meredith, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" Highly recommend this hospital, friendly staff and looked after very well!"
Sue Harbridge, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" I did a Calcium Score Scan at Pall Mall a week or so ago. The appointment was arranged promptly and I was informed in detail of the procedure by email (by post if requested). On the day I was escorted to the room and the scan was completed within 10 minutes. As promised I received the report in 5 days and most surprisingly it was followed by a telephone call from a doctor employed at Pall Mall advising me to see my GP as further investigation like an angiogram was recommended."
Placid Coorey, Private Imaging & Scanning
" Thank you Dr. McCulloch! I saw Dr. McCulloch for a well-woman check this past week. He was not only kind and caring, but took the time to answer all of my questions. He put me at ease straight away from the minute I walked into his consulting room. He did a thorough check and gave me the time to discuss all my concerns. I think I will be having a regular check-up each year with Dr. McCulloch and should I have any additional concerns about my health, I would not hesitate to book an appointment with him. The staff, including the nurse who took my blood samples, were lovely and welcoming, too. Thanks again Pall Mall Medical."
Janet Clarke, Private GP Services
" I have a big thank you to say about Pall Mall Medical, having gone for a company required MRI body scan they identified a possible heart problem and a possible prostate problem and suggested further consultations should be made to Specialist consultants. These revealed a negative with my heart but a positive with my Prostate. This result has lead to a very early detection of prostate cancer which is being removed in the next few day with a 95% survival rate given to me. I cant thank you enough for the expertise in spotting the markers and having the service available for me to use. I will be attending many more MRI scans in the future thanks to you guys keep up the great service."

" WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE! I was very self-conscious before I took my first visit to Pall Mall medical (Newton Le Willows). Before I had my surgery I suffered gynecomastia. I would sometimes have panic attacks in public places, my self-esteem was very low, I would hide away from social interactions, I was in a very bad place psychologically and could see no way out. My first encounter was with Helen Stuart the Cosmetic Patient Coordinator. Helen guided me through the whole process and made the full journey feel effortless and strangely enjoyable. Helen is very down to earth and friendly as well as professional and offers a lot of advice and experience and will always go that extra mile to help you when needed. The team in theatre were fantastic we really got on. They asked me my favourite music whilst setting up shop and before you know it there's music playing and were all having a real genuine chat about allsorts whilst Mr Prasad the surgeon shows of his precision and skill. After surgery you get your own room with everything you need inside and food and refreshments brought to you. It was that chilled out I even had a little kip! The whole service was more than I could have expected and the after care is exactly the same. Thank you Pall Mall medical for all your services. Money well spent! Now I can move forward in my life and be me again!"

Kerrie Bilson, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" What a wonderful experience I had with this hospital! All the staff couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. I had breast augmentation by Dr Prasad and I'm over the moon with the results!!! They look so natural I couldn't be happier!! I couldn't recommend enough. I was so nervous and anxious and all the staff I met there put me at ease. It was more like a hotel than a hospital! So clean and I wasn't waiting long for my appointments whatsoever. If I could remember all the staffs' names who dealt with me I would love to personally thank them for making it an experience I'll never forget. Whenever I've had any enquiries I've been responded to straight away. Nothings been too much trouble. They're so bubbly and it's lovely to see when you first walk in. So professional, efficient and friendly. I haven't one complaint. Thank you for everything!"
Jessica Radbone, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" Would most definitely recommend this hospital, the staff are superb and very friendly, a special thanks to Helen for getting everything sorted before the operation, Trish who I was it contact with nearly everyday, she really put herself out for me and booked herself in for my operation just to make sure I was ok because of the issues I had prior to the op and Maxine was very friendly always answered any questions I had, I few times I had to speak to Maxine out of hours, she answered the phone whatever time it was to give me advice I needed. Also Mr Prasad I couldn't fault him in anyway, he was really nice to speak to and helpful and has done a really good job with the surgery. Overall a massive thank you to all the team that looked after me it's very much appreciated Claire O'Donnell"
Claire O'Donnell, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" Came in on 13/8/2018 for breast implant removal and new implants plus uplift. From meeting Helen and Mr Prasad to having my surgery was wonderful. Maxine you and youre staff looked after me so well. Been today for my 6 week check and so pleased with my results. Thank you so much Mr Prasad"
Sharon Clement, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" I attended Pall Mall Medical for follow up vitamin infusions following stem cell treatment for Lyme Disease in May in Germany. It was initially very difficult to find a private clinic in the UK willing to work with and administer the infusion protocol devised by the clinic in Germany and which I brought back to the UK with me. However from the initial contact with Pall Mall Medical their complete open mindedness and Tim's extensive experience in infusions and interest in the treatment made for an easy process and very refreshing. Add into that the lovely Maxine who administered the infusions with help from Amanda who assisted with making 'makeshift' bottle drips to all in all make a smooth and simple process. I heartily recommend this clinic. "
Kath Lowden, Private Intravenous Therapy
" I attended Pall Mall Medical for the Hay Fever Injection as this year I suffered with hayfever so severely. I was having sleepless nights, constant running nose and eyes and itching eyes and throat. The injection was very quick and painless and my hayfever symptoms eased the very next day, I feel so grateful that I can live a normal life through summer and enjoy the sun. Thank you!"
Chloe Hesketh, Private GP Services
" Fantastic friendly service, would like to give a special mention to Beverly from admin and Amanda from imaging for their extra attentions in dealing with my experience xxx"
Jonny Wilson, Private Imaging & Scanning
" Had an upper abdominal MRI scan at the Newton Le Willows centre after experiencing pain in this area. As I have had previous scans in the past I e mailed Amanda Webster and Bev Whittle who are the ladies who deal with booking of the scans and getting the results back to you. I contacted both Amanda and Bev on the Wednesday and between them they managed to arrange a Dr telephone consultation and get the MRI booked for the very next day which was amazing. At the scan I was greeted by both Amanda and Bev with huge smiles and was treated like a friend more than a patient or customer. The lady who completed my MRI scan was a lady called Jen who I think would have a smile on her face if you told her the world was ending. If Jen cannot make you feel at ease nobody can. My scan took 20 minutes and I was off on my way home to wait for the results which came through to me by e mail on the following Wednesday which showed everything was fine. To summarise it took 1 week in total from me contacting Amanda and Bev at Pall Mall Medical to getting my results back. Unbelievable friendly and professional service from Pall Mall and especially from Amanda,Bev and Jen. A massive thanks to these 3 ladies."
Steve Rimmer, Private Imaging & Scanning
" I had some bloods taken and another thanks goes to Jordan who ensured my results were received within the time frame of 24 hours. When I need medical assistance I contact Pall Mall Medical before my GP for that piece of mind in a very quick turnaround of time."

I cannot recommend him highly enough, everything youd want in a GP and more, such a shame not all gp's are like him, he sets such a high standard. As for the clinic itself and reception staff they are brilliant too."
Emma Geraghty, Private GP Services

Excellent, would highly recommend "
Joanne Morris , Pall Mall Cosmetics
" I have visit Pall Mall Medical for blood tests. Amazing clinic.Receptionist Sarah was extremely nice and helpful. Felt really special as a person not only as a another patient. Thank you for a coffee! Felt a bit anxious, however completely unnecessary as Cristina the nurse was so nice, delicate, explained me step by step whole process. As required received email and post with all my blood test results after 1 working day. Couldn't ask for more. 5 star service."

Sara even stayed with my throughout the procedure and checked on me, I was overwhelmed with the personal service I received. Maxine my nurse was just lovely and it was like belonging to a family. Everyone who I dealt with couldnt of been more lovely. Sara and Maxine even checked on me well after my procedure. I cannot thank everyone enough, Mr El Gawad was amazing, and I got exactly what I always wanted and it was one of the most lovely experiences. Thank you to everyone who looked after me."
Kath Bridge, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" Pall Mall Medical has kind staff who I find are always prompt, courteous and efficient at whatever task is given, be it offering refreshments upon arrival through to handling letters/emails to patients. At all times there was a professional standard of care received at Pall Mall Medical. Pall Mall is ideal for self-paying patients like myself. The venue in Liverpool is easy to get to with various train stations located within 5 minutes walking distance."
William, Private GP Services
" Had the prescription strength Hay Fever Injection last week that is NO longer available on the NHS - it was amazing and not painful at all. My brain fog has cleared and my runny nose, itchy eyes and sore throat all but gone. Would recommend this clinic in an instant for anybody else suffering with Hay Fever as bad as me."
Tim Parry, Private GP Services
" I visited Pall Mall in Manchester for the second time in order to have a medical check for a foreign visa application. Just like the first time, the service was very efficient and the quality of care was top-notch. Everybody I met was extremely friendly and considerate. Specifically, Sam and Rachel were incredibly attentive and understanding of the (often pedantic) needs of the foreign visa authority, helping me make sure all the documentation was in order."
Aaron, Private GP Services
" I have been going to pall mall medical centre for over 8 years now and I have never been disappointed with my treatment I always smile at the staff and they smile back I have never seen such nice people they are always superb I first met my doctor Picthall 2 years ago she was so friendly to me and I took to her right away I knew I felt comfortable and this was going to be the start of a long doctor patient relationship she is professional and caring I know she will lead you in the right direction and give you the best possible care, I urge all those reading to visit doctor Picthall as I can not imagine not seeing her she has helped me so much thank you."
Jason Lees, Private GP Services
" Really lovely hospital with superb staff. From the lovely ladies I met on reception to my brilliant nurses and surgeon. Maxine and Steph genuinely made me feel at ease before and after my op. Brilliant team!! Would recommend this hospital to everyone!"
Trisha Short, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" After an initial consultation and a follow up appointment at Manchester, I went ahead with the planned surgery at Newton-Le-Willows. My first contacts at Pall Mall were Sara and Helen, both of whom were very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble for them. My surgeon Mr El Gawad - I really can't praise him enough! Apart from being an amazing surgeon, he's such a lovely, genuine man and you can tell how much he loves his work and making people happy. The treatment I received from everyone that I met, from start to finish - Ward nurses Maxine & Stephanie, Theatre nurses Carol & Leanne, Anaesthetist Dr Neeraj Sharma (my apologies to the ones who's names I can't recall) was second to none and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pall Mall Medical."
Anonymous, Pall Mall Cosmetics
" I visited your beautiful medical centre today, I was really pleasantly surprised with the beautiful clean decor but extremely impressed with the staff you've employed, all were amazing, one person stood out in particular, a nurse called Cristina. I'm scarred of needles and was worried about the procedure, Cristina put my mind at rest and was extremely polite, professional, so much so that I felt her effort and service needed to be noted by her superiors. Not only myself, but now my whole immediate family will now be using you guys for all our medical needs due to your staff and I would like to thank you for your great standards and service. I've never given feedback to anyone before today, but I thought it would be unjust if me not to let you know how impressed I was with your premises and staff, being raised in Dubai I have had the experience of many 5 star places, this being the best."
Babak Banihashemi (son of Seyed Banu Hashem), Private GP Service
" Amazing Service I had my consultation and scan within 36 hours - absolutely unbelievably quick. The service was reassuring and professional. Diagnosis and treatment advised which stopped my hysteria re my swollen and very painful knee. A special thank you to Amanda who acted beyond the call of duty. I would recommend Pall Mall without hesitation to anyone."
Yvonne Cannings, Private Imaging & Scanning
" We have both attended Pall Mall Medical in Newton-Le-Willows recently for surgery. We found all staff to be professional and caring which made for a relaxing experience from the initial contact to leaving the hospital. We were given telephone numbers and told we could contact the surgeon/nurse if necessary even on a Sunday which did happen on one occasion when we phoned a nurse at home. Everything from the cleanliness of the building to the friendliness of the staff was exemplary and we would ask you to convey our thanks to all the staff."
Beryl and Brian Colvin, Private Surgical Procedures
" Fast, quick, efficient and get the job done with a smile of their face. Recommend to anyone!"
SAMI AZAD, April 2018
" 10/10!!! This may be the first time I've ever made a review... and I'm 33 years old. I just happened to come across Pall Mall Medical on google as I needed a quick blood test doing for my job. They were the most competitive in price around the whole of Manchester so I went ahead and booked an appointment. They saw me the same day I enquired and when I went there the place was immaculate and beautifully laid out. Just when I thought this would be the highlight of my experience, I then met my nurse (Cristina) who was just amazing! She was polite, extremely professional, reassuring (as I'm not a fan of needles) and most of all extremely good at her job. The size of the needle was huge and of all the times I've had this procedure done, this one was by far the easiest and pain free! She is by far Pall Mall Medical's biggest asset! My experience was so good that I told my family about the staff and service and now Pall Mall will have all 6 of us for any of our medical needs, due to an amazing nurse and professional, easy service. Thank you Cristina, Thanks Pall Mall - Babak"

Jo Palmer, Private Imaging & Radiology Scanning
" On 28th March 2018 at 18.15 hours I attended the Pall Mall Medical clinic for an MRI Scan of my right knee. My leg was in a brace at the time and I was supported by a single crutch. Earlier that day I had extensive and serious pains in my back which was recently operated on and large metal work and structured screws with rods held up my lumber region. Stupidly not wanting to cancel my Scan I made the difficult journey as the scan was urgent. In order to find out what was wrong with my knee joint which kept collapsing. As the day went on my symptoms worsened. Upon arrival your reception staff and Claire Hughes were monitoring my difficulties. Your male radiographer whose name escapes me assisted me in my knee scan. However as I got downstairs with the radiographers assistance I found myself unable to walk. So sat down for awhile. My legs became weak, mainly from the waist and back, whilst pain channelled all over. These symptoms or my pain worsening had nothing to do with the Scan I had on my knee or the procedure conducted. Whilst I was unable to walk Ms Claire Hughes and the radiographer helped me to my seat and called an ambulance. I was in excruitiating pain. Claire also raised the alarm to Maxine and Carol. Who are medically trained and experienced nursing staff. They spoke to me and collected my medical history and proceeded to carry out observations and support my spine by laying me down on a medical couch to prevent further problems. My medical history is complex and I am under the care of a Neurosurgeon. Despite being scared and in pain your staff stayed with me despite a busy shift and gave me medical assistance and unbelievable support. I really couldn't of coped without them. Your staff. All 3 members continued to contact the Ambulance service and relay medical information to them. My symptoms worsened and the ambalance took over 5 hours to attend. Your staff even contacted the senior doctors on call to get me pain relief as I waited. Your staff were so committed to my well being that they challenged and spoke to the Ambulance control room supervisor to get an immediate response. I recall your colleagues state to ambulance staff that my symptoms resembled that of a cord compression. Their assessments of my medical problems were better than some doctors I have seen In A & E. When the paramedics arrived a small movement by myself when they tried to move me onto a stretcher sent my hole neck and back into spasisms with pain radiating down my hips and buttocks. It would be fair to state I was in complete distress. I have suffered in the past with a broken neck, Claudia Aquinas, broken discs and a broken hip before. So you see i am in pain daily. But this episode was horrendous. Your staff stayed with me to the very end. Extensive scans and xrays revealed I had C3/C4 cord compromise but bruising. Cord Compression is the next stage. My lower back was troubled by my right leg problems and a strained muscle in my lumber region leant against the metal scaffolding in my back which felt as though as screw had come loose and my back went into multiple spasms causing pain to radiate downwards into my hips. Neurosurgeons were aware and alerted of my admission and an urgent outpatients appointment is being arranged. However at hospital I had continuous IV morphine and diazepam to control and manage my pain. I am now at home resting. Appointment made to see GP on Friday and soon to see my Neurosurgeon. Can I please as yourself and your director of medicine of Pall Mall to personally thank your very professional, caring and understanding staff who offered me care in truth I've never had in some hospitals. Clearly your colleagues are very experienced and incredible well trained. I couldn't of coped without them. They showed great respect and resilience to care for my needs. If there are others I may have forgot to mention. Please relay my kind thanks to them too. What an assert Pall Mall have and what an incredible medical team."

CRISTINA ANDREEA, Private GP Service
" Had a blood test though Pall Mall which took 18 hours to report back to me (Thanks to Rachel Harrison and Christina for quick reporting and help with my bloods). The results were a little elevated in regard to my prostate. I decided to have a MP- MRI of my prostate which is new technology being used and not available nationwide on the NHS. I spoke with Amanda Webster in the imaging department who made an appointment for me to have the scan within a few days and the results were to be reported 3-5 days later. On the day of the scan I was met by a gent called Steve who performed the scan and he immediately put me at ease and made me feel comfortable. Obviously after the scan waiting for the results is a very anxious and worrying time. Amanda who had booked the scan in the first instance kept in touch with me and answered all of my questions immediately during this anxious time. Amanda acted in such a professional and caring way and I will always remember how she helped me though a week filled with worry. I have had my results today and I am obviously delighted with them. DR Tudor talked them through with me at length and assured me. Overall I cannot rate Pall Mall Medical high enough and I hope the management realise what assets Amanda, Steve and Dr Tudor are to the company."
Steve Rimmer, 09/04/2018
" We had a appointment in Manchester with Cristina for blood tests. She is the most professional and experienced nurse I ever met, was calm and patient with me although I was not ready. Thank you Cristina."

Lesley & Joanne Kissack , 8/2/2018
" "I had a full tummy tuck and breast augmentation.All my appointments starting from the initial consultation to the pre op appointments were all great and very helpful. I was very confused with which size implants to go for and Mr El Gawad told me which size he felt would be best suited for me and all I can say is I'm over the moon, as my breast are now the perfect size. They are just the look I was wanting. Mr El Gawad really is great at what he does. I could not have been in safer hands. His aftercare is second to none I just cannot fault it. If you are thinking of having surgery please do so, you could not be in better hands. Having my surgery is the best decision I made, it has made me so much more confident. All the team members, the nurses, Theatre assistants aswell as the receptionist are all there to help and truly care. I felt so looked after. I can not have been more happier with my results and am very glad I chose Mr El Gawad.""

Nothing too much trouble....my experience was so good that I would love to be part of that team myself...so much so I will be applying for a night nurse position....please wish me luck x"
Cheryl jones, 7th October 2017
" I had breast implant removal and uplift. From my first meeting with Mr El Gawad i knew i wanted him to perform my surgery. From start to finish I can honestly say I have had a fantastic service from Pall Mall medical. Mr El Gawad made my experience feel very personal, he always got back to me with in a timely manner. He answered all emails I sent him, he goes above and beyond his duties as a surgeon. He is very kind and understanding with a brilliant sense of humour. I would not hesitate in recommending him. You would have to go a long way to find a surgeon of his quality. 5* service"
Louisa FArrell, 18/10/17
" Had surgery with Dr Prasad, would recommend him to anyone, in fact would recommend the whole team, been looked after so well by Georgina and Lynne and the nurses on the day. They are a fantastic team and Pall Mall Medical is beautiful, more like a hotel than a hospital. Thank you all for looking after me. "
Miss Davies, 30th November 2017
" I today visited Pall Mall in Newton-Le-Willows and was very impressed by the courteous and professional atmosphere. All staff were very pleasant/helpful and the Dr and assistant carrying out the scan were genuinely very empathetic and really made me feel at ease. In fact the impression I received was first class from the moment I attend the reception area to the moment I left the building. I must give a special thanks to Amanda who really went out of her way (very much so) to ensure I received the pre-med the day before the scan. Without her help, I would have had to postpone the scan until after Christmas and so I cannot thank her enough for going the extra mile. All in all, I wouldn't hesitate when it comes to recommending Pall Mall."

While motifs relating to the grief-stricken often dominate conversations about Victorian jewelry, there was way more to adornment than mourning in the 1800s. From styles that revived older looks to those popular moving into the 20th century, Victorian-era jewelry took many interesting, and beautiful, forms.
01 of 03
Black Jewelry
Contrary to popular belief, jewelry made of black material was not always worn to symbolize the loss of a loved one during the latter half of the 19th century. Sometimes wearing black jewelry was simply a fashion statement, and it was worn apart from traditional mourning dress.
So how do you tell the difference? If a piece of jewelry doesn't have some type of mourning symbolism, then you can't assume it was worn as part of mourning dress. For example, the black glass—also referenced as French jet—and enamel Victorian sash pin shown here was probably not created as a mourning piece, and it should not be categorized in that way. It does not have mourning symbols within the design, nor does it have any type of "in memory of" inscription. Perhaps it was worn by a woman in mourning, but it wasn't specifically made for that purpose like so many other pieces of black jewelry.
02 of 03
Garland Style
At the end of the 19th century, some of the most à la mode jewelry was white, white stones with a white metal setting, and designed in the garland style. Delicacy was the hallmark of this style. Motifs of ribbons and bows, cobwebs and lace, leaves and flowers predominated—anything that lent itself to a curvy shape, and always with plenty of openwork. The stones would often be in a millegrain setting, to add to the air of intricate frothiness. The graceful designs were highly symmetrical, inspired by 18th-century rococo patterns.
But if the inspiration lay in a historic style, the execution reflected state-of-the-art technology. Diamonds were the stone of choice, thanks to the immense output of South African diamond mines in the late 1800s that greatly increased the availability (and affordability) of the sparklers, according to Clare Phillips in Jewelry: From Antiquity to the Present. Advances in the craft of creating cultured pearls helped make pearls omnipresent, too.
Finally, developments in metallurgy encouraged platinum to become the must-have setting. The strength of this white metal meant that even a large necklace could be made with a relatively small amount of metal. Pieces were ornate, yet lightweight.
The garland style predominated in all sorts of jewelry: tiaras, bracelets, necklaces, and that quintessential Edwardian/Belle Époque piece, the dog collar. Its white-on-white color scheme and flowing silhouettes flourished throughout the early 1900s, up until World War I. The jeweler Cartier was a premier practitioner of the garland style. Towards the end of the first decade, however, more linear shapes emerged as a harbinger of the Art Deco look to come.
03 of 03
Renaissance Revival Jewelry
Renaissance Revival as expressed in jewelry is an elaborate, colorful style popular in the second half of the 19th century that set out to imitate 15th to 17th-century jewelry motifs and styles. This reflected the renewal of interest in Renaissance artists and craftsmen such as Hans Holbein and Benvenuto Cellini.
Characteristics of this jewelry include extensive use of enameling, jeweled and scrolled frames of bright gold, openwork designs of quatrefoils or trefoils, dangling chains, baroque pearls or cameos, especially in the center of the piece, and detailed figures—like small-scale sculptures—depicting mythological creatures, cupids, or animals. These figures were often carved on both sides of a piece of jewelry, creating a three-dimensional scene. Some of the respected designers associated with Renaissance Revival jewelry are Castellani, Guiliano, Fouquet, Louis, and Jules Wiese.
Some scholars believe Renaissance Revival jewels were originally made as deliberate counterfeits of 15th-, 16th- and 17th-century pieces to fool the growing number of Victorian aristocrats interested in collecting gems dating to this earlier period.

Features & Specifications
The Microsoft SideWinder X3 has three on the fly sensitivity adjustment buttons that move the mouse between 400 dpi, 800 dpi, and 2000 dpi and the settings can be customized with included software. Five main buttons on the mouse are programmable with macros and can be reassigned for use in either hand.
Dual recessed side buttons are offered and the highest sensitivity setting for the mouse is 2000dpi. The Microsoft SideWinder X3 can withstan20G of acceleration and process 7080 frames per second. Other features include wide glide feet, rubber scroll wheel, quick turn button, and support for XP and Vista operating systems.
In Use
Considering that the Microsoft SideWinder X3 sells for $39.95, it packs in lots of features for the money. The 2000dpi sensitivity will be plenty for most users that don't like super high resolutions like the 4000dpi and more other mice are capable of. One of the nicest features of the Microsoft SideWinder X3 is that the mouse uses an ambidextrous design. Left-handed users are hard pressed to find a decent gaming mouse.
The adjustable sensitivity can be programmed though various levels up to 2000dpi in the software. By default the three buttons under the scroll wheel are mapped to 400 dpi, 800 dpi, and 2000 dpi. I much prefer fixed buttons for sensitivity levels rather than one button that scrolls through different settings.
The problem with one button for the sensitivity settings is that if you lower resolution for something like sniping you have to watch the mouse to see what sensitivity setting you are at when you try to go back to a higher setting. With the Microsoft SideWinder X3 you simply fell your way down the button row and press the one you want without taking your eyes off the game.
Using the software included with the mouse you can bind macros to the programmable buttons to perform multiple keystroke tasks with the press of one button. The side buttons of the mouse are arranged with one on each side of the mouse. The buttons are placed up higher and forward of where the thumb naturally rests when the mouse is in use. The only issue I had was that for my medium size hands the buttons were a bit of a reach and required me to reposition my hand on the mouse to use them.
The scroll wheel is wide and coated in rubber for traction. I quickly missed the scroll wheel on my Logitech G9. The G9 has a detent mode that offers freer movement allowing me to stay in click mode, but flick the wheel for faster scrolling. The Microsoft SideWinder X3 scroll wheel is much tighter so you have to use constant thumb motion to scroll. A quick turn button is also included on the mouse allowing you to spin your game character in a circle to check your perimeter with the press of a single button.
The Microsoft SideWinder X3 is a raging bargain in the mouse world. It gives up some of the nice features of high-end mice, but keeps most of the performance you expect form a SideWinder gaming mouse. This is the mouse for gaming bargain hunters.

Human brain and the potato: similarities within the mitochondrial ion channels
Certain elements of the membranes surrounding cellular mitochondria, responsible for transporting potassium ions, are identical in the potato and in mammalian brain, suggest researchers from the Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. Their claim is based on research conducted in collaboration with scientists from the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan.
Membranes surrounding the mitochondria contain proteins controlling the movement of ions, called the ion channels. Research conducted by scientists from the Nencki Experimental Biology Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw (Nencki Institute) and the Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology at the Adam Mickiewicz University (IBMiB UAM) in Poznan showed that certain types of mitochondrial potassium channels in potato cells are identical with respect to their structure and function as their counterparts in the mitochondria of neurons in mammalian brain.
Mitochondria, the energy centres of cells, are organelles a few micrometres in length. They are present inside eukaryotic cells (cells with a nucleus) and their number ranges from a few hundred to a few thousand. Mitochondria are responsible for important life functions as, among other, they produce a chemical compound called adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the main carrier of chemical energy in cells. Its fundamental importance is highlighted by the fact that each day a human being transforms ATP in the amount comparable to the mass of its entire body.
Ion channels are proteins which allow the flow of large quantities of certain type of ions in a controlled manner. In the membranes surrounding either the cells or the mitochondria, there are channels specializing in transport of potassium, sodium, calcium or chlorine ions. Scientists from Nencki Institute and IBMiB UAM investigated mitochondrial potassium channels controlled by ATP as well as calcium ions.
"The problem with ion channels in the mitochondrial membranes is that they really should not exist at all. Modern models of energy production in the cell indicate that channels in mitochondrial membranes would lower the effectiveness of the process. But since the channels do exist, they must have provided significant evolutionary advantage. We, therefore, face the following question: when in the history of life on Earth has this advantage played a role?", comments Prof. Adam Szewczyk from Nencki Institute, co-investigator.
Ion channels are opened and closed by specific activators or blockers. An example of a blocker affecting human cellular mitochondria is iberiotoxin, present also in the scorpion venom. Measurements of the current flowing through the potassium channels in the mitochondria of potatoes, taken at Nencki Institute, have shown that these proteins not only have a similar function as mammalian mitochondrial channels, but also react to the same toxins. "This is extraordinary. Proteins responsible for the transport of potassium ions seem to be evolutionary preserved it the mitochondria", concludes Prof. Wiesława Jarmuszkiewicz from the IBMiB UAM.
Ion channel research may have great medical significance. Drugs affecting mitochondrial ion channels could significantly limit the effects of heart attacks and strokes. However, introducing a new drug to the market is a very expensive and long process. For this reason the effects of mitochondrial ion channel research will likely first impact the cosmetics industry.
The Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology PAS intends to begin long term collaboration with Dr. Irena Eris Cosmetic Laboratory. They have jointly submitted a project under the INNOTECH initiative implemented by the National Centre for Research and Development. By studying protective substances affecting mitochondrial potassium channels they hope to develop new dermocosmetics. "If everything goes as planned, in a couple of years everyone will be able to try a new dermocosmetic product and appreciate the benefits of mitochondrial basic research", concludes Prof. Szewczyk.
The Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology of the Polish Academy of Sciences has been established in 1918 and is the largest non-university centre for biological research in Poland. Priority fields for the Institute include neurobiology, neurophysiology, cellular biology and biochemistry and molecular biology – at the level of complexity from tissue organisms through cellular organelles to proteins and genes. There are 31 labs at the Institute, among them modern Laboratory of Confocal Microscopy, Laboratory of Cytometry, Laboratory of Electron Microscopy, Behavioural and Electrophysiological Tests. The Institute is equipped with state-of-the-art research equipment and modernized animal house, where lab animals are bred, also transgenic animals, in accordance with the highest standards. Quality of experiments, publications and close ties with the international science community, place the Institute among the leading biological research centres in Europe.

Brief Overview
Food & Pricing: Light and fresh for what was ordered. Well seasoned, and not giant portions. Quality was fine as well. – Very easy on the wallet, see the menu at the bottom of the post. Many items are about 8.00.
Parking: Small amount of limited spaces in the lot behind the building, street parking there after.
Patio: There is a small handful of patio tables ringing the restaurant. – No covering's, wear sunscreen and bring your shades. Ladies in shorts / skirts, the chairs may hurt the back of your legs after sitting for a while. I usually try to have a hoodie or magazine to sit on in these situations.
Service & Cleanliness: Mixed, all 20 something's in age, the young lady there that day was very pleasant. The 2 young Gentleman seemed very disinterested in being engaging, almost aloof. No one knew about check in coupon, a bit of an ordeal with that. – Did not check out the bathrooms, but the front of house and parking lot was clean.
Take out: Available, but did not get anything to go (Just a teeny plastic cup of chorizo), so I cannot vouch for the packaging here. Looked like they also use those little brown boxes that close over top.
Now on to the review.
Hello again!
Today's reviews take place again yet in the Heights. (Well actually First ward off Houston Ave and Crockett, but pretty dang close to the heights area) – Yes, the heights is over-gentrified and certainly bougey, but my bestie lives out there, so I have learned to make the best of the worst. Typically the execution of the food out in the Heights, much like the tax bracket, can at times be more than a bit over-priced and over-rated.
I have only visited Cafeza once so far, but for that solo attempt I feel for now at least, that I have found a new hidden gem. 🙂 When you walk in they even have tempting pastries to greet you!
The back entrance off the parking lot looks a bit sketch, but worth it to take a walk through that door and head inside.
On to the food, we really enjoyed both dishes!
Only wanting a light snack, we split the chorizo tacos with the chorizo on the side. – (Pan fried chorizo, potato, egg, queso fresco, & cilantro lime crema.)
The tacos were on mini palm sized corn tortillas and tasted delicious. No undercooked potatoes or overcooked eggs. 🙂 The avocado in the photo was an add on per my request, and next to it is the chorizo that we ordered on the side. There was enough chorizo for me to take the rest home to make my roommate a couple of breakfast tacos the next day.
We also had a Veggie Enchilada Empanada.
It was nice to be able to get a Empanada anywhere! So many places only have fillings that contain meat or seafood. It was tasty, however, we were almost done with the tacos by the time the empanada finally hit. Took a bit of the polish of it since we getting full at that point. It had a soft veggie filling with an enchilada sauce taste. – I would like to try the other veggie option, Black Bean & Potato on my next visit.
I decided to wash it down with a glass of white wine, yes it was well before noon, I also had a glass of their delightful, made to order loose leaf tea blends over ice as well. Both we great, however, I do not however remember the name of either. – Also due to a Yelp check in that was available at the time, we enjoyed a free steam punk coffee, cold or hot. We opted for cold and it was fabulous! It was so light and smooth it was almost like drinking a light iced tea, there was no hint of bitterness in this cold coffee (left image below, right is the tea) what so ever.
The lady working register was a delight to deal with, the guys making coffee and such seemed a little too cool for school hipster douchey tbh.
The morning menu is served during breakfast hours only, which I forgot to ask that they specify what those hours were, with the afternoon and evening menu then taking over. They do serve the churros and empanadas all day, I am really looking forward to going back to try a churro!!
We highly recommend giving this pace a go. Vegans however may be limited to salads and fresh fruit.
Until next time!

A Texas court ruled this week to invalidate the marriage between Thomas Araguz, a firefighter killed in the line of duty, and Nikki Araguz, a transexual woman, after the man's family wanted to exclude her from his death benefits. Now Ms. Araguz has been arrested in connection with the theft of a Rolex watch.
Nikki Araguz was charged with felony theft in April. However, police said they could not find her to serve an arrest warrant.
According to court documents, Araguz met a woman at a southwest Houston bar in February and drugged her. The woman woke up the next morning and discovered that her Rolex watch had been replaced with a different watch, the documents showed.
"(The victim) woke up the next morning and found that her Rolex watch had been swapped out for a Swatch watch," said Donna Hawkins with the Harris County District Attorney's Office.
Court documents showed that a witness reported finding an entry on Araguz's Facebook page that stated she had gotten a Rolex watch from an unidentified man. The witnesses told detectives that she confronted Araguz about the watch and she admitted she had the woman's missing watch, but she claimed they had willingly traded watches.
Investigators said Araguz took the Rolex watch to a pawn shop in northwest Houston...
Araguz was arrested while awaiting a verdict in her civil case after voluntarily turning herself in. She posted a $2,000 bond and was released the same day.
Araguz has been convicted of four theft charges previously. If convicted this time, she faces up to two years in prison.

Could the NHL Lockout Be Over? — Players and Owners Exchange Proposals
After long meetings, the NHL and the Players' Union have exchanged proposals, and it looks like there could be hockey in the near future.
On Tuesday, the players and owners met for almost 10 hours. Those meetings might have paid off, and the two sides have exchanged proposals, possibly ending the NHL lockout.
A source tells ESPN that while the two sides could soon be in agreement, things are still very delicate. NHL commissioner Gery Bettman said that he is 'pleased with the process', but things are still moving slow. They are hoping these meetings have saved the season.
