Dinner from Cafe X2O

Dinner from Cafe X2O. Ordered through Doordash, so it cost a bit more. Got the Chicken Shawarma plate for $14 (plus $7.23 to substitute spinach for rice, and for grilled veggies). It looks like it's less if you pick it up in person ($12 for the Schawarma, $4 for the spinach, and $2 for the veggies). X2O is on the north side of Foothill just east of Alta Vista. Food was delicious!
