In many traditions, the most meaningful meals begin at the center of the table.

Our whole leg of Colorado lamb is braised for three hours until fall-apart tender, served over Biryani and Zereshk Berry Pilaf, and finished with mint, cilantro, and fried onions.

Created for slow evenings, shared plates, and gathering together.

Only one available nightly.
