ANNOUNCEMENT / / / we are teaming up with chef @buck_jonathan for some really cool dinners over the next few weeks. space is very limited and the menus are going to be out of this world.

each dinner will focus on a single ingredient that we have challenged ourselves to use in every course throughout the evening. we want to see how far we can push ourselves and the ingredient.

our first dinner is this coming tuesday (24) and we are cooking with @nat_bradford collard greens. prepare to experience collard greens like you’ve never had them before. (collard green sorbet anyone?)

$75/pp for food $125/pp for food and wine.

dm or call us for details or to reserve your spot.

our second dinner with chef jon will be december 1 and our featured ingredient will be dutch fork pumpkin.

*also* tag a friend below and we will randomly select two people to giveaway two tickets each for one of these dinners.

thanks y’all! ...

maybe you are a burger and fries person. or maybe you are a tacos and sprouts person.

we love you the same and i’m pretty sure we can all agree that both go pretty damn well with a glass of beer.

you can find the best of it all here @commonsgvl ...

been thinking about this basil outside the restaurant almost constantly.

i didn’t plant it in this pot. i planted basil in the pot above it.

the basil i planted never did all that well. probably too much sun not enough water etc.

it flowered and went to seed.

one or several fell into the pot below.

grew apart from me or my assistance.

now it grows here much better than it ever did where i thought it should grow.

i can plan all i want. sometimes the plans don’t work out and it’s bad. sometimes i guess the plans don’t work out and it comes out alright. ...

fish & chips.

cornmeal fried trout, fries, malt vinegar tartar sauce.

good doesn’t always mean complicated i reckon.

how y’all doing? know anything good? ...

oh man i keep meaning to tell you about noodle night i promise.

it’s every monday night from 6-9 here on out. it’s my favorite food to make. it gives me something to live for.

come check it out.

love. ...
