The White House has opened its doors and it was busy when I stopped for coffee. They have a light, simple menu and although the cakes were on other side of the room, they looked good. The waitress who served me was trying to get through her first day at work and the inevitable hic-coughs that come with a busy opening. That earned me a complimentary plunger and greek biscuit to go with the coffee. On top of this however, the potato and leek soup I tried was also far too salty. And that, even for my jaded and shell shocked taste buds. One hopes that the kitchen will settle down with time, as it is still a very pleasant venue.
