    I'm so impressed with Smaaken in Hawthorne Asylum! I was providing brunch for an office with a variety of dietary restrictions, and Smaaken had something for everyone. Plus an amazing variety of both sweet and savory waffles. I placed a large order (14 sandwiches total!) for a meeting, and Ari whipped them up lickety-split. The meeting attendees said the sandwiches were delicious, and I'm so grateful for the fast and friendly service.
