Opties and Dinghies

The entirety of the menu at this casual, tiny spot fits on a good size chalkboard, yet it seems to cover all of life’s essentials, like flaky croissants, cold sesame noodles, and a large life raft outside that serves as their signage. A long refrigerator case holds two dozen gelato and sorbet flavors, which they scoop until 9pm, a few bakery selections, and Chinese dumplings that come from the small kitchen. You should also try the coffee and crepes and grab pot stickers to take to the small front patio or on a stroll through the neighborhood’s mix of shingle-style and Victorian-era houses.
