In Feb 08, I went to one of the Saturday brunches. The brunch was a six-course meal with a max of 12 participants, who all sit family style at the table. Everything is gluten free and vegan.
Overally, I was impressed by the quality and creativity of the food, especially since they change the menu every day. Everything was very delicious, and the chef was available to answer questions afterward.
