If you live in Santa Monica and have a hankerin’ for some Joan’s On Third action but don’t  have your passport and shots in order to cross the 405, then Thyme Cafe/Market is for you!  If you haven’t been yet… what the hell is keeping you?!  Thyme Cafe/Market is wonderful!  Despite the homogeneous crowds, the atmosphere is bright and airy.  They have a great selection of sandwiches, salads,  and take-away foods.  The quiches are perfectly executed.  The desserts are fantastic.  Michael, one of the managers, seems extremely intent on providing friendly service.  The other day, he overheard me asking about how the brocolli was prepared.  Later, a plate of it appeared on our table.  This place is definately a new fave!
