Los Angeles

Both lunch & brunch shouldn't be missed, notably the signature “green eggs and ham ,” a stack of cured pork belly and fried eggs slid onto toasted brioche and painted with colorful salsa verde .

The cheese plate comes in two sizzles, small (3) and large (5 cheeses ). Served with homemade fig and strawberry jam , walnut bread , English muffins and grapes .
