Crackpots Review

A grocery was transformed into Carole Norman's "ceramic café," a simple but elegant eatery with warm yellow walls, an open fireplace, and cozy dining areas. The most popular tables are in the front "shop window" area. Behind the restaurant is Carole's pottery workshop; if you like your dinner plate, you can buy it. The eclectic menu has plenty of light dishes in the lower price range, with vegetarian options a strong point. Choices range from spinach and ricotta in phyllo baked with red pepper sauce to Moroccan meatballs with couscous to Thai-style prawns with fragrant rice. There's always steak, too.
