Seawiches - West End

 So we were tying to find a local place that was supposed to have great pizza.  Couldn't find it and ended up tryin a new place that just opened up a few months ago located right next door to the Chocolate Factory.  Its actually a lounge and they have local musicians in the evening.  We were there at lunch time and it was half full, the owner ran around barefoot which I thought was funny.    They don't take credit cards and the prices were a little more than what we were expecting to pay so I ordered the appetizer of hummus and pita bread  and Greg ordered the fish tacos.  He had 3 tacos on his plate and there was a lot of fish on it.  My hummus was good, but it could have used a little garlic or more paprika.   On a side note - the Chocolate Factory used to have Indian food and they don't anymore - now we know why, the person probably moved over to this restaurant. lol

There were also large chunks of potatoes that could have been cut a little smaller. Greg liked the soup.  My pl
