This Brentwood restaurant is part cafe in front, part larder to take away, great for drinks at the bar, and everything from a casual burger to a more formal occasion for two or a group. Serving up hearty fare such as salads using chickpeas, farro, frisee, and wild mushrooms; mains such as a pancetta wrapped trout with pine nuts or a ranch pork with celery root, currants and brussel sprouts; a Niman ranch steak with root veg gratin or rack of lamb with swiss chard and fregola; this spot epitomises modern Californian cooking. It's farmer's market- esque, with lots of high- end dairy such as crème fraîche, Macadamia butter, goat cheese, and burrata. Forget just breakfast, lunch and dinner; there's a brunch menu, a kids menu, picnic boxes, catering, even brunch pastries menu. The sort of spot with a bread schedule and cookbooks you'll want to buy but never end up cooking from; this destination will have you coming back again and again with its near-round the clock offerings and easy way of making your tummy feel good.
