Bookroo's summary

In a small Kansas town, the Van Gogh Cafe is no ordinary eatery. Clara witnesses the inexplicable as her father's cafe serves up more than just meals—poems predict futures, and food cooks itself. With magic woven into its very walls, each day brings new wonders and mysteries. What secrets does the cafe hold, and how will they change those who enter? Discover the unexpected in a place where the ordinary meets the extraordinary.

From the publisher

At the Van Gogh Cafe, anything can happen. Clara’s dad owns the cafe, and she’s seen it all–from food that cooks by itself to poems that foretell the future. This award-winning collection of vignettes by Newbery medalist Cynthia Rylant is a treat to be relished. So bring your appetite for the unexpected, because at the Van Gogh Cafe, your order of tea and toast comes with a side of magic!
