Our garden salad. Most components of this dish come from our garden, with some from a local urban farm, The Hungry Gardens. Grilled avocado, tomato, and corn, surrounded by fresh herbs, flowers, and lettuce, with a tempura-fried corn fritter in the middle. We sauce this dish with a ponzu and Wagyu fat emulsion.
Thank you to guest Krystina Doan who recently called this “Hands down the most memorable salad that I’ve ever had from the most generous team.”

Our Mushroom Garganelli:
Each component of this dish is infused with mushrooms, starting with the pasta, which our team hand rolls every afternoon before service. The Garganelli is infused with porcini powder, sauced in a wild mushroom and Madeira cream. Utilizing some of the trim from the mushrooms with a granola made with brioche, and finishing with some butter roasted chanterelle, morel, and cordyceps all roasted in herbs from our very own garden.
