We’re back open! When a multi-day power outage shuts down a kitchen like ours, it’s not as simple as flipping the lights back on. Every dressing, every roast, every marinade (everything we make from scratch) has to be sourced fresh and remade. Our team spent all day Sunday chopping, roasting, and refreshing each station from the ground up. Lunch is ready. Thank you for your patience 💚

Still no power at Recess, Superica, or Hop City while Krog Street tackles a major electrical outage. We had to throw out hundreds of pounds of fresh produce and proteins, and once the lights come back on it’ll take us a full day to remake all the homemade dressings and roasted veggies from scratch. When we finally reopen, your support will mean the world 💙

We roast, char, and chill broccoli florets and turmeric cauliflower daily to bring out unique flavors in our salads like the Sweeter Greens, Harvest Moon, and My Fair Lady — going an step further makes all the difference at Recess 🥦
