Good morning everybody! It’s gonna be a much cooler beautiful day, which is just fine with me. As usual, we’ll have absolutely gorgeous locally sourced food for you today, and everything made in house. Today my special is Huevos rancheros for a special customer whose birthday is today. Heirloom tomato tartine is gorgeous, the fresh fruit and granola bowl is one of my favorites and won’t be around much longer, and as always, all your menu favorites. Hope everybody is taking advantage of these last two weeks of summer, getting out and making memories, and we hope that you include us in your day. Take care hope to see you soon.

Good morning everybody! It’s gonna be an amazing day today out here and we hope you can come on out and have some of the best food in town. Probably the last few weeks for our yogurt granola and fresh fruit bowl, tomato tartine is always beautiful, Nick‘s house-made quiche is mouthwatering, and it’s hard to choose from a regular menu item, as they’re also tasty. MarionBerry muffins, cinnamon swirl coffee, cake, and toasted apple pecan bread or my sweets for the day. Remember, we will not be open for regular dinner tonight and tomorrow, so we hope to see you out here during brunch. Y’all take care and have an absolutely fantastic day.

 Happy Thursday evening everybody. Boy, did today get warm at market, but it didnt keep me from filling the restaurant with beautiful produce for your enjoyment. I want to remind everybody that we are not open for normal dinner Friday and Saturday night this week as we are having our Taste of Summer event. We will return to Friday and Saturday night dinner the following weekend and can’t wait to get into the swing of things with school starting soon and people settling into their schedules. Summer has been great and business has been amazing, but I can’t wait to feel a little Fall in the air. Enjoy your weekend everybody and come see us for brunch!

Good morning and happy Wednesday everybody. As I drove in this morning, I pulled over to watch the sunrise and it always makes me feel so grateful and full of excitement. Running a restaurant is a daily grind, that brings a new challenge every day, and it is always so delightful to be able to look out my window and remember where I live and why I do what I do. We are so blessed to live in the middle of such beauty that gives us such a bounty of amazing and glorious food. We are so thankful for you and all the support that you give us on a daily basis and the encouragement that you have given us over the years has been priceless. Please take a moment and enjoy this glorious day and remember that we are truly blessed. Can’t wait to see everybody’s smiling faces soon. Take care.

What a fun Monday we had today. It was quite busy and the kitchen absolutely rocked it. We always love a busy Monday, especially coming off a super busy weekend. We sold out of the yogurt and granola bowl, as well as the Eggs in purgatory. That is such a fun and delicious special, everyone wanted to try it. Delicious! It will be available again tomorrow. Blackberry muffins will be on my pastry list tomorrow as well as an apple-butter pecan bread. Hope your week started off well and we hope to see you soon.
