Lin bought out his partner, Ivan, in 2007 and continues in day to day operations of all phases of the restaurant including most of our desserts.
"We believe all guests deserve good food and service, if we drop the ball let us know right away so we can correct the problem or misorder then. In this way, you and your guests do not have to suffer through a bad experience, and we have a chance to get you something else or correct a mistake. Although it is too late to correct a problem after the fact, we invite your comments or questions to lbiar@aol.com. I will reply as soon as possible. Thank you for your support and we look forward to serving you!" Lin Biar
