  The day before my dad’s funeral, I went to the mall to buy a pair of black pants. There’s often something cathartic for me about the anonymity of the mall, of being surrounded by people all set on their own missions, none of whom are concerned about who you are or what you’re there for. Yet, I cried my way through that shopping trip, lonely and unmoored, trying to imagine a world without my dad. And then I stumbled into the Cafe. I’d been once or twice before. I found myself at Keystone often in the months prior because my hairstylist was located in the salon suites across the way. But on this day, when no one else had seen me crying, and the anonymity of it all had begun to feel more like an anvil than a blessing, Miss Sonya saw me. She remembered my order. She called it out the second I walked through the door, and met me at my table with a goat cheese panini and a carafe of Coke because she knew I’d want a refill. She spoke gently, familiarly, aware of my tenderness in a way that reminded me I wasn’t alone. In that moment, I wasn’t invisible. My grief was shared. Maybe she’ll read this one day and know how much it meant to me. Maybe she won’t. But I guess what I’m saying is: Some people have their neighborhood pub or the quirky coffeeshop around the corner from their job. I have the Nordstrom Cafe. And there’s something kind of beautiful about that.

  Ordered the Lemon Chicken Gnocchi. The dish contained spinach but not enough IMO, so I asked for more. After a half hour of waiting I started to wonder why it would take so long to get some extra spinach. Finally the server comes and hands me a plate of fresh uncooked Arugula. By that time my dish was basically cold. And it's not like the restaurant was getting slammed. There were probably just 4 tables at that time. Disappointing.

  Decided to try out this place after watching my favorite streamer Yui talking about it the last few days , service was probably the best I have received in a long time and to be able to be served by her was probably the best experience I could think of. And the food was exquisite, honestly sad that I never knew this place existed until I heard Yui talking about her day working their.
