Dish Review

Moxie's Betty Crocker-meets-Pee Wee's Playhouse-at-a-flea-market decor, from glass cake stands and bright floral tablecloths to fresh flowers, creates a surprisingly homey atmosphere for a restaurant with no dining room. Menu items are as carefully presented as they are concocted, like the breakfast porridge (a refreshing non-dairy rice pudding, $3.25) and kugel ($4.50), both perfect-looking and served with juicy spiced apples. Or grab a quirky "elixir" drink ($3.75) and a sandwich, like a delish apple and brie on Pearl Bakery walnut panini ($3, choices rotate daily). (Originally reviewed 4/19/2006)
