Watermelon Carpaccio 🍉

Sweet, locally sourced seedless watermelon from Ronnie Moore Produce takes center stage, paired with crisp Persian cucumber, fresh lime, fragrant sumac, and crunchy spiced cashews. A luscious pomegranate–saba–sherry vinegar condiment adds the perfect balance of sweet and tangy, while a delicate sprinkle of nigella seeds brings an aromatic finish. 😻

Bright, refreshing, and bursting with contrasting flavors and textures, this vibrant dish captures the essence of summer in every bite. 🍉

Jimmy Nardellos 🌶️

We’re lucky to have growers like Ronnie Moore’s Produce and Moth Dance Farm (Jason+Ami) keeping local peppers in our kitchen! We’re using their Jimmy Nardellos with whipped feta, toasted walnuts, and fire-roasted peppers, finished with pomegranate molasses. Stop in tonight to give these a try!!

One of our newest dishes: the Summer Squash Rosette!

Chef de Cuisine Sarah Baugher takes a classic mortar-and-pestle sauce and gives it the Ajja treatment: sunflower + pumpkin seeds in place of nuts, quick-fermented mushroom scraps for a serious hit of umami, and nutritional yeast for that salty, cheesy magic 🪄

Summer squash is shaved into delicate little roses, then topped with a wildly pink plum gastrique made with roasted cherries + a splash of vinegar. (Our neighbor showed up with a cart full of plums!!! We knew exactly what to do.)

To bring it all home, there’s barberries — a Persian dried fruit that we rehydrate and pan-fry in olive oil for the perfect hit of tartness, richness, and texture.

Vegan. Nut-free. Gluten-free. And not missing a thing. 🌱

The perfect way to end a warm evening! 🫐

Our blueberry posset is cool and silky, topped with brown butter-tahini chantilly, sugared almonds, tukmaria, and anise hyssop. Light, a little nutty, and a little floral. 🌞
