| - A small shack which was once the home of The Goodwich on the lot of Dino's across the street from Olympic Garden. Small menu, big on taste...text ordering option if you don't want to wait.
Pick your main (protein: tri-tip, porchetta. OR the veggie option: roasted radish, roots and greens), from the field (carrots, triple cooked potatoes or Central Coast Salad...for $10. $3 more if you want extra. Choose your main sauce: Wookey Jack BBQ or Kingsley's Sauce.
Grass-Fed Tri-Tip:
You get thin slices of beef drizzled with sauce. Kingsley's sauce was the choice made - it's like a cilantro pesto sauce. It wasn't bad but it's not the best meat I've had. 3/5
Porchetta:
A slice of well-rendered flavorful roll of pork. Imagine Canadian bacon but 100x better because it's slightly crisp and tasty because of the herbs and walnut stuffing. 4/5
Central Coast Salad:
Aka CCS. Mixed greens, goat cheese, beer vinaigrette, and charred scallions. There are salads that pretend to be healthy but all you get is a sad bowl of lettuce with some basic stuff, and there are SALADS. Well, this is a SALAD - arugula, other greens, yummy scallions, friggin goat cheese...and f@[#ing beer! Because, dammit, why not!? 4/5
Coq-in-a-Box:
This is the box for me. Fried chicken breast drizzled with Kingsley's sauce (yup, that happened), braised leg, and mustard greens with olives and capers. The fried chicken breast was fantastically crispy. The braised leg tastes like Filipino chicken adobo. But I wasn't a fan of the greens. The capers and olives made it too salty. 2.5/5
Griddle Bread Pudding:
The only dessert item they have. Banking on a sole item is ballsy and I commend the Slo-Boy peeps because it's absolutely delicious! It's safe to say that it is the best bread pudding I've had in years. Warm, slightly crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside...swimming in sweet syrup and caramel. Oh yes, lawd! 5/5
I'd have to come back for the carrots...and more bread pudding.
