Look on the Bright Side
Saturday, March 19th, 2011
It’s time for weekend brunch, and Serious Eats points you to the side dish section of The Farm on Adderley’s menu (as Blondie & Brownie did a couple months back). You could probably put together an entire, fantastic meal made up just of sides, but the star would be the Chocolate Brioche w/Sea Salt & Butter ($3 per slice):
The brioche is a butter sponge but toasted all over, with crispy, dark brown edges, and though it’s thick as a textbook, it still somehow feels light and airy when you bite into it. Order it as a pre-bunch amuse, even if it does feel too desserty for omelet hours. They don’t overdo it on the chocolate chunks, which are all warm and melty between brioche bites. And the coarse sea salt sprinkles give it that sweet-salty glory.
The Farm serves brunch on Saturday and Sunday from 10:30am-3:30pm, but you can order the chocolate brioche during the weekday service as well, from 9:00am-3pm.
