Cafe C'est Si Bon

I'm sad to say I think this was as ephemeral as the spring wild flowers.  When I called March 29, 2013 the phone was disconnected.  I'm thinking it was fun but not enough business to pay the rent and electric bill...

Chance find after dusty Vegas trip, looking for Death Valley, feeling like we'd been already, gagging for an espresso.
Chatty owner, informative geologist only other client, what a find! Must go back one day but long way from Liverpool, England.  C'est si bon indeed, trés bon!

We wandered in here on the advice of some time-traveling gypsies. To hear them tell it, finding Cafe C'est Si Bon open is pure luck. The decor inside this cozy space is meditative, slightly eccentric, and slightly trippy. David, the proprietor, had randomly decided to open the cafe this morning instead of Pastel's down the road. He had enough batter for two crepes, which were shared among the four people in our party. One fruity, one nutella, both with ricotta, both delicious. His simple bread rolls -- with uncooked quinoa in the dough and a honey glaze -- were complex, comforting, and savored by all. That's all the food he had to offer that morning. (The group of French tourists who came in after us had to leave empty-handed.) But it was enough. A hibiscus and lavender drink of David's own devising sealed the deal.
