wait, no more lunch? that was quick. there was no way being open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner was sustainable.

I hope lunch comes back
There was a few weeks where they opened at 6pm every day except Saturday, but then went back to 5:30 across the board

it was dead when i went there for lunch on a weekday. like, 4 tables including me and nobody at the counter or bar. it barely felt like a functioning restaurant. it wasn’t clear they had considered small points like: how do the customers get napkins and utensils (which weren’t on the table)?

Interesting that the cali-prese isn’t part of Josh’ perfect order at Leopardo.

it really can be a good podcast when he isn’t doing snack ratings or other nonsense. Haven’t turned it on in so long, used to be my favorite food/chef podcast

Spotify has a transcript feature. I’d paste a link but they don’t seem to work here.
some new to me updates to the dinner menu, it’d been a few weeks since I’d stopped in at night. Some solid combos to build
smoked wild salmon bruschetta & its roe, wild fennel vinaigrette
Scrunched these up for some one-biters, thought about ordering another round.
cali-prese 2010 with eighteen-hour tomatoes, stracciatella, honey vinegar & basil
They sent this out. Cool as I hadn’t ordered it in a while. New set to me with the larger marinated, peeled and sliced tomatoes.
heirloom melon salad, pistachio, tangerine agrumato & herbs
coulda enjoyed just the herbs dressed in agrumato. From here on out I drank red Burgundy.
prawn cocktail, momotaro tomato & kizami
These were a late addition as I kept thinking they’d go great with the bianca pizza. And yeah they totally were.
bianca, garlic, pecorino romano, olive oil, lemon, basil
I should have ordered this for the start of the meal and enjoyed the pizza throughout 
it woulda went with everything
molten chocolate, coffee ice cream & hazelnuts
Lovely, prepared me for the walk home, always love coffee ice cream

got @butteredwaffles’fluenced.
peach mostarda is back. new off-menu crispy roast chicken with a “broken salsa verde” and croutons. the chicken was quite good, crispy skin, perfectly cooked and juicy. croutons soaking in the jus were delicious. i didn’t care for the “broken salsa verde” too licorice-y, i’m guessing from the chervil?
prawns were really good too but would stick with the best in class oysters if having to choose.

So finally an explanation of “mochito.” Sort of.
What are the kinds of caviar and the place in China? that they talk about around 1:01:00?
I imagine @Clayfu knows
