Never have I ever ever EVER spent so much on a plate of food before just for myself (dates don't count).

Rating: Excellent. SI+Brain salivates for another chance to come here!
From the creators of the famed Huckleberry pops out Milo and Olive. All kinds of people come here, and the setting is...magically relaxing.
Warm and friendly-- every baker, every employee chats with you.
The people here are enough to make you want to stay.
And then you are hit by the gorgeous smells of fresh bread baking (dare you to try it at home), and wafts of every new dish to come out.
So then your SI + Brain obligates you to stay for a meal too.
We sat at the communal table/bar.
I took pictures of the people across us but they saw me and told me to delete them. Every seat gives a great view.
We enjoyed a solid selection of seasonal dishes here such as White Wine Mussels + Bread, Pumpkin in Brown Butter, Sphaghetti, and the garlic knot.
Each dish was spot on and exquisite in terms of taste, execution and presentation.
Who cares if each dish costs at least $15. Now's not the time to be shy, especially if college dorm food is what we've been having on our palate....
One ravenous person can easily spend $30 here, but relax!
Split your dishes with an acquaintance, and don't forget to breathe while eating.
It packs a two-time sensory punch, especially with in-house citrus-carbonated water to boot.
Tried these. Mmmmm!! ^__^
Ate 3/4 of this and gave up after having too much Pumpkin + Butter (dessert/brown sugar). So good though!
Had to give this one a try: Mussels in White Wine + Bread
