Brunch at Ford's

Fresh off the plane from NYC on Sunday, what better a thing to do than collapse into the sunny patio outside of Ford's for brunch? Biscuits, fish n chips, brisket, polenta... a heavenly way to re-acclimate to California livin'.

img_0877Biscuits... hot from the oven... came with sweet jam. A good opening salvo.

img_0879Holy fish n chips. The batter was light and spongy and not only were there chips but there were onion rings and asparagus, too!  The fish was perfect. Perfect! Loved.


img_0880Brisket Hash. Booyah. That's some good Sunday food right there.

img_0882Polenta Cake with mushrooms and truffle-mascarpone. So baller it's on the dinner menu, too. This was the dish that I, officially, ordered. No regrets.  I'll see you soon my friend.
