December 11: Soup
December 18: Warmth
Hello there,
We have two menus to offer you this December: the first is Soup, with rich brews and homemade sriracha, to keep you well as the holiday approaches; the second, Warmth, with all sorts of special things like duck rillettes, preserved quince, bay nut candy and mushroom truffle terrine, to give as gifts or serve to guests or eat with spoons.
We’re selling them through Square Marketplace on a first come, first served basis, for pickup in Berkeley and San Francisco. Soup will be available on Wednesday, December 11 in Berkeley (4pm to 8pm) and Thursday, December 12 in San Francisco (4pm to 7pm).
Warmth will be available twice: on December 11 in Berkeley , December 12 in San Francisco (4pm to 7pm), and also on December 18 in Berkeley (4pm to 8pm), December 19 in San Francisco (4pm to 7pm).
Ordering will be open from now until the Monday morning before pickup, or until we sell out.

Bay nut candy, 3 pieces
The fruit of the California Bay Laurel tree, roasted and crushed with sugar into a candy that tastes like coffee, like chocolate, like leaves. A very rare treat.

All our best,
