Odd Duck

On a cool day, with light streaming through glass walls, the wood siding and burlap lamp shades seemed especially cozy. A lunchtime merguez-sausage meatloaf sandwich, thick, emphatically seasoned slices on buttery potato bread slathered with harissa mayo, warmed us right up. For a more ambitious meal, chef-owner Bryce Gilmore’s creative menu might offer grilled jerk-seasoned quail with creamy garlic sauce or barbecued octopus and pork belly on basmati rice.
