I like my avocado on tacos, or on tortillas. \u00a0Anyways here&#8217;s a picture of the avocado shake tea whatever they called it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_160\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-160\" style=\"width: 453px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a rel=\"Lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/sarah-and-avocodo-shake.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-160  \" title=\"sarah and avocodo shake\" src=\"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/sarah-and-avocodo-shake.jpg\" alt=\"Sarah sampling the shake\/tea\/avocado concotion\" width=\"453\" height=\"536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/sarah-and-avocodo-shake.jpg 453w, https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/sarah-and-avocodo-shake-253x300.jpg 253w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-160\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sarah sampling the shake\/tea\/avocado concotion<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>[rating:2.5] Decor, nothing fancy. \u00a0Clean, and plenty of windows for some light to come on in<br \/>\n[rating:3.5] Everything was fairly reasonably priced.<br \/>\n[rating:4] Food was pretty delicious.<br \/>\n[rating:3.5] I&#8217;m feeling too lazy to do the math, but I liked the place and it was something different than burgers and fries in Kentucky. \u00a0So, enjoy your 3 and a 1\/2 stars Fusion Cafe. \u00a0Keep on bringing a little bit of the rest of the world to Lexington<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fusion Cafe 919 Winchester Rd Lexington, KY 40505-3947 (859) 246-1500 Google Map of location Semi-late [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21,4,26,163,200,172,173,164,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-153","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-danreview","category-dining-out","category-enjoyable","category-foodquality","category-goodfge","category-kentucky","category-lexington","category-restaurants","category-seafood"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=153"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":645,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153\/revisions\/645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=153"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=153"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
