re: MONDO

OK, went for brunch today... it was AWESOME! We had the fresh fruit with yogurt, honey, and homemeade granola (excellent), fried chicken livers with stewed red cabbage and onion 'jam' (excellent), sweet potato silver dollar pancakes with carmelized banana butter and cane syrup drizzle (very good), Thai pork & shrimp meatballs with lemongrass skewers (great), grilled pimento cheese/andouille/carmelized onion sandwich with crab boil potato chips (very good), goat cheese lemon crepes (very good). Also had an excellent bottled ginger beer. This place instantly became one of my favorites; I'll definitely be back. Was unable to try the 3-course Saturday lunch at Bayona b/c we arrived just as they stopped serving at 2pm... guess I'll have to try it next time I'm in town.
