Stacy Reynaud: Huge salads. I had the butter lettuce with cranberries and goat feta - the lettuce was perfectly crisp. Excellent
People: Sure, you can get artisan cheese, pastries and preparedfoods at this family market, but the best dish could be on the patio — whereyou might spy stars like Jake Gyllenhaal mid-bite.
Bravo: Fresh seasonal food. I love to go there for breakfast and have the organic soft boiled eggs. -Malika Ameen, Top Chef Just Desserts
