Oh boy! I just found out that Robert Irvine is doing a "Restaurant Impossible" mission/t.v. episode on a restaurant here in Santa Cruz and it's going to happen FAST. Like this weekend. Apparently, the restaurant will reopen on next Tuesday. That gives me some food for thought... Here's the news article from the Santa Cruz Sentinel: Food Network's 'Restaurant Impossible' to Remake Hoffman's in Santa Cruz.
I've been to Hoffman's Bakery Cafe before, but that was a long time ago, back when they first opened. I don't remember anything bad about the place, except that they didn't really have any food that I wanted to eat. (Everything was made with white flour, for instance.) And I don't remember it looking that bad — just kinda plain and nondescript. I guess you could say the food and the place altogether was sort of "Blah." Anyway, it quickly became a place that I forgot about.
It will be fun to see what Robert Irvine and the Restaurant Impossible team do to change the place. Here's an online article in wikipedia that tells you all of the restaurants that have been featured in the t.v. show so far: Restaurant Impossible.
