I stopped by last friday evening to pick up a bottle of wine and the owner pulled me to the back of the store insisting I try some of what they were pouring that night. They were deep in the midst of the weekly dinner, a new thing they’d been trying with one of the cashiers who doubles as chef. A long table was filled with people drinking wine and passing trays of carefully prepared food. I bought the wine and went off to my own dinner party, sad to leave but vowing to return. I kept my promise last sunday, settling into the window seat with my boyfriend, drinking strong coffee and reading the New York Times. The food was delicious, a southwestern burrito with slightly grilled zucchini and mushrooms, and a sauce that was somehow both creamy and spicy. And it looked beautiful, garnished with sliced fruit and a sprinkle of coriander This was all topped off by mimosas. It’s now our favorite breakfast spot, even though you can’t choose what you want to eat. They serve friday dinner and sunday brunch and only one option each time, but they always post it a few days before in case you really didn’t want crepes that day. But every time I’ve gone, it’s been exactly what I wanted.
