Review of Pawpaw Cafe

I’ve previously had great experiences eating here for dinner, but went for lunch today and it was awful. They mark many/most items on their breakfast and lunch menu “gluten friendly option” but on asking for a gluten free vermicelli noodle salad they said they they couldn’t do it coeliac safe because of the sauces - in fact the only items that are coeliac safe on the breakfast/lunch menu are two heavy curries (yellow or massaman), a steep $10 above the cost of any other menu item (over $35 with rice). I went with the massaman and while the meat and potatoes were beautifully cooked, it was the saltiest curry I have ever eaten, barely edible. Left with a massive stomach ache. So disappointing and such a waste of money.
