new on the menu: alimento

[I] have such fond memories of lazy, hungover (pre-baby) brunches at The Back Door Cafe in Silver Lake. The homemade scones and gigantic cinnamon buns were off the chain, not to mention the ridiculously delicious homemade ketchup and jams. Sadly, they closed up shop several years back, and ever since, I’ve been waiting for that been vacant space to be filled.

Fiiiiiiiinally that day is here. Newly added to the up-and-coming restaurant row of Silver Lake Boulevard is Alimento. With neighbors such as LAMill, L&E Oyster Bar and soon-to-open Milk, Alimento is certainly in good company. Chef Zach Pollack has renovated my once-beloved breakfast spot, transforming the space into a bright and modern Italian eatery. The menu will bear dishes native to several regions of Italy, serve house made pasta, panzanellas and chopped salads as well as an impressive list of biodynamic wines to sip. They’re starting off with dinner six nights a week, and I hear that they’ll eventually start doing brunch on the weekends. So when that day comes, you’ll know where to find me.
