Highly Likely at 8 am
After coffee - which I consider to be a separate meal anyway - we walked to Highly Likely and arrived right at its 8 o'clock opening. The town still sleeping, we were the first customers. We had our "usual" in our "usual" spot and all was good.
morning tune-up
Whereas much of the world gets up around six or seven, Ojai, CA seems to get up around eight or nine (this includes the Ojai Rancho Inn, where we were staying). Since we belong to the first group, and I am an "obligatory" morning coffee person, the solution was to stroll to Three Birds, the nearest open coffee house. This actually worked out well, since the exercise-coffee combo, combined with a good hot shower, tuned my morning piano to perfection.

dessert
Due to the swirl of activity we had to adjust our seating situation and in return were offered a complimentary dessert. This was a nice gesture and after reviewing the options I had to admit that the sundae with Nutella sounded the most appealing. It did not disappoint.
car battery
From the menu it was difficult to determine the volume of the various side dishes that piqued our interest. As an insurance policy against hunger I got this block of Potato and Poblano Gratin almost the size (and shape) of a car battery - but without as much flavor. Actually it was okay but it could have used a bit more flavor in my humble opinion.
Condor Bar
Our first visit to the fashionable Condor Bar, the dinner venue at the new Hotel El Roblar in Ojai. It seemed quite busy for a Wednesday night and the succession of dishes immersed us into a swirl of California Cuisine with Mexican overtones.
