Surfas Culinary District — Restaurant in Hot Springs

We have been trying to get in to see this place for over a year. Finally, today we remembered to get in there. First, it's a rather big place. It is jammed full of culinary goodness. I could find the really unique items here that make cooking faster, easier, more efficient. Second, the prices were excellent. The sales staff won't breathe down your neck and yet they're immediately available to answer any questions. The two there today were very nice and we felt comfortable around them.

I would tweak the recipe to reduce the salt in the hummus and serve with saltless flatbread and you have a winner. Overall this is a quaint spot with good food at a moderate price. We'll be back to try other things...
