What to Order

Charred Carrot Tartine

Smoky-sweet charred carrots, whipped labneh, and toasted seeds on crisp, house-baked bread — a bright, shareable bite.

Candied Citrus Chicken Wings

Crisp wings glazed with a tangy-citrus reduction and finished with herb crunch for a playful, sticky snack to pair with cocktails.

Miso-Butter Roasted Mushrooms

Umami-rich mushrooms roasted in miso butter and served with grilled levain — deeply savory and made for passing around.
