Cafe does the poke bowl

Japanese-inspired Nippon comes with its own sauce.

Good to know that some things don’t change. Although the former cafe Les Deux Garcon had recently been renamed Sixteen to cater to a new generation of customers, we were happy to find that the quality of food at this cozy culinary outpost had been maintained.

When we popped in for brunch recently, we noticed some minor changes to the interior. There was now a little green nook next to the entrance where assorted potted plants were clustered together, and some were hung overhead beside the glass picture window. Together with the many oversized pots of verdant green just outside the walkway, the greenery evoked a feeling of soothing tranquility at the cafe.
