"“I really love Evelina. They have an insane brunch menu. My go-to order is the pulpo, their grilled octopus. It comes with a sort of ajo blanco sort of sauce on the plate, and charred peppers. I also love their gazpacho, which is tomatoes and watermelon—so good, so light and delicious. I was there the other day and I was like, ‘Oh yes, I'll have the gazpacho please and the pulpo,’ and my waitress was like ‘You said you're gluten-free, right? Let me check, because I feel like the gazpacho has breadcrumbs.’ I was like, ‘What?’ Because I've been ordering it—like, been ordering it. She comes back and goes, ‘I'm so sorry, I don't know who let you eat that. It totally has gluten in it.’ I was crushed, bro. I was crushed. Like, my brain broke for a second. Maybe it's some sort of weird placebo thing, where I'm like, ‘It's fine, I'll eat it.’ Now I'm questioning my whole identity. I got the ceviche instead, which was delicious also. It wasn't the gazpacho. I was so disappointed. Now when I go back I'm gonna be like, ‘Hello, darkness.’”" - brennan carley
