Best get in early if you want one of this local hero's signature dishes: beetroot-cured trout salad with beetroot chips, or salmon, horseradish and caper fishcake. But don't worry if you miss out: something else on the eclectic menu will spark your appetite. Banana bread comes with whipped honeycomb ricotta and frosted pistachios, while Boston baked eggs and beans has silky-soft spinach and feta croquettes on the side. It's all chatter and clatter whether you pick a communal table in the front room or the cushion-strewn banquette out back. There's also an adjoining food store.
