The menu runs to bowls, salads and brunch plates built on local vegetables, and it serves through the middle of the day when most restaurants here are shut.

It sits just off the peninsula and keeps its own site and social pages current, which is worth checking in winter. Coffee and juices are part of the trade, so it works as a morning stop as much as a lunch.
