The Scene
A bright yellow peace sign greets guests at the house where chef-owner Bill Greenwood creates his always-in-season dishes. Greenwood's decor, which ranges from Elvis memorabilia to framed Grateful Dead posters, will make both Southern grandmas and Berkeley hippies feel at home. Service is energetic, if, at times, harried. Plan to wait before being seated.
The Food
Fresh, innovative fare rules the deceptively simple meat-and-three menu. Sweet, tangy fried chicken dipped in a crunchy honey-pepper batter is cooked to order and worth the 30-minute wait. Boneless pork chops sauteed in sage butter arrive fragrant and tender. Vegetables are the real highlight. Collard greens have just enough of an apple cider-vinegar bite; cheesy broccoli casserole is all homey goodness; black-eyed peas are lovingly simmered in a heady vegetarian broth. Dessert is required. Finish with a massive slice of strudel-like cherry pie and homemade vanilla ice cream.
