点评:Gather is a special place. Chef G has performed yeoman’s duty transforming the former Junebug/Summerland into a truly warm and welcoming establishment – perfect to gather . . . and eat awesome food.
One of the things I really like about Gather is the chef’s ability – be it Giulio or Braden – to transform local ingredients into gastronomic vessels through which we can connect with one another, all while enjoying a delicious meal. Whether it’s a spicy salami sandwich, nettle soup, duck pappardelle, pan seared duck breast, or gently poached lingcod, it is clear the duo at Gather is intimately aware of the connection between ingredients and place and the power of these things to bring people together; in fact, Chef G’s even said that “In each menu, we strive to incorporate what’s meant to be here with simplicity and care.” In short, you are presented with simple, non-pretentious food that inspires connections while concomitantly pleasing thine taste buds.
The menu at Gather changes weekly, but one theme is persistent: A focus on locally foraged and harvested ingredients. This is attractive on a number of fronts: 1) It demonstrates a clear love of place; 2) It supports local; and, 3) It results in some of the most delicious food you’ll ever eat. Try the poached lingcod & fried sunchokes or the shakshouka (made with fresh Tlell eggs) and you’ll see what I mean. The dishes are simple, but the flavours developed are complex.
FOOD: 5/5
SERVICE: 5/5
VALUE: 5/5
RECOMMENDATION: Giulio has said that “Art has the power to lift the spirits and make people smile.” I think this statement is apt because that’s exactly what you get at Gather – food as art. Each dish is lovingly prepared and beautifully presented. As you sit in this casual and inviting space, enjoy some good food and warm company . . . it’ll make you smile. Highly recommended!

翻译:聚集是一个特殊的地方。主厨 G 履行了自耕农的职责,将前 Junebug/Summerland 改造成真正热情好客的场所——非常适合聚会。 . .吃很棒的食物。
我真正喜欢 Gather 的其中一件事是厨师的能力——无论是 Giulio 还是 Braden——将当地食材转化为美食容器,我们可以通过这些容器相互联系,同时享受美味佳肴。无论是香辣意大利腊肠三明治、荨麻汤、鸭宽面条、香煎鸭胸肉,还是水煮鳕鱼,很明显,Gather 的二人组非常了解食材和地点之间的联系,以及这些东西将人们聚集在一起的力量;事实上,G 大厨甚至说:“在每份菜单中,我们都努力以简单和谨慎的方式融入这里的本意。”简而言之,您将看到简单、朴实的食物,这些食物可以激发联系,同时还能愉悦您的味蕾。
Gather 的菜单每周更换一次,但有一个主题始终如一:专注于当地觅食和收获的食材。这在许多方面都很有吸引力:1)它表现出对地方的明确热爱; 2)支持本地;并且,3) 它会带来一些您吃过的最美味的食物。试试水煮鳕鱼和油炸日光浴或 shakshouka(用新鲜的 Tlell 鸡蛋制成),您就会明白我的意思。菜肴很简单,但开发的口味却很复杂。
食物:5/5
服务:5/5
价值:5/5
推荐:Giulio 曾说过“艺术有振奋人心、让人微笑的力量。”我认为这句话是恰当的,因为这正是你在 Gather 得到的——食物作为艺术。每道菜都经过精心准备和精美呈现。当您坐在这个休闲而温馨的空间时,享受美食和温暖的陪伴。 . .它会让你微笑。强烈推荐!
