milk & honey

milk &honeyis one of those places that are hard to categorize.  is it a coffee place like starbucks or a froyo place like pinkberry, or a shaved ice place or a place that serves middle eastern pastries? and if you go to their tumblr site, it is even more confusing. bohemian? hipster? maybe all of the above? it really defies the human tendency to want to categorize and classify. eclectic is definitely an apt term here.  but this is sometimes what you get when the purveyors have complete freedom in doing what they love best.  without the shackles of a need for a central marketing theme, one is allowed to follow whatever their passion is, be it coffee/tea, shaved ice, baklava, or sandwiches.  that is probably the only classification you could put on milk & honey. it is a small storefront located in the camp.  if you blink or turn your head the wrong way, you might miss it completely.  even though everything they serve here looks delicious, i can never seem to stray away from ordering th

milk andhoneyfor dessert… …where i consumed half of this tart froyo with yogurt chips. cold, but tasty.

it was girl's night out and preggar's aka mmp was craving for dessert/ice cream. i remembered reading about milkhoneyfor dessert and it was close by so i thought it would be a good suggestion. tp drove us and we cruised on over to the camp, which is whe

yet to be discovered... you know, each time i've come in here there is only ever one couple sharing a deuce, comfortably and enjoyably, while i order with the chap at the counter sporting a friendly smile.

i didn't get it, and now i do. the place is really a little treasure, but it's small and hidden. no one knows this is here. right across from the lab, in the strip that is exposed to the street next to chevron, check out milk +honeyfor a casual lunch with a friend or frozen yogurt treat. their frozen yogurt is delicious--only two flavors, but the seasonal flavors are exciting, and the original tart it rich with yogurt benefits and a kick. the prices are affordable and the atmosphere is much like the wine cellar at the camp. if only people knew this place where here, it'd be packed. it's small, true, so there are only six tables, maybe. there is an outdoor patio that accommodates less than a dozen people. have lunch out there with your colleague one day. it's contemporary napa... outdoors. enjoy it.

even though milk +honeymay have a young-established name for it's milk drinks and cafe, i fancy the yogurt, for it's the only thing i have yet to try. there is more to come, and i assure you... i will return.
