"Led by former Alma chef Ari Taymor, the pop-up is being made permanent at 2424 Main St. in Santa Monica; brunch service is pausing today for material improvements with a planned reopening on May 4. This is Taymor’s first major project since Alma closed at the end of last year. Currently in its second month of weekend-only service, the operation will add near-daily dinner service next month, running Monday through Saturday. The space — a former Fork in the Road property — will undergo minimal changes, aiming for a casual dinner aesthetic akin to Tyler Wells’s evening approach at All Time in Los Feliz. Andrew Noel and Tegan Butler are leading the redesign while GM Steve LaFountain continues to oversee the wine and cocktails. The dinner menu will emphasize farmers-market ingredients and seasonal vegetables, delivering the same laid-back meals that have characterized the brunch program." - Farley Elliott
"A weekend-only brunch pop-up led by Chef Ari Taymor, who re-emerged after his West Hollywood restaurant closed, offering a focused weekend menu aimed at revelers and brunch fans. Expect classics and standout items like soft scrambled eggs, smoked salmon hash, chia seed pudding with sorrel, and the chef’s buzzed-about patty melt, with the full menu available online. The operation is a partnership with Shane Murphy and general manager Steve LaFountain, who will be serving breakfast cocktails in the Main Street space (the former Fork in the Road location). It’s a temporary takeover for the next several months with Saturday–Sunday hours from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.; reservations are available but there is no set timeline for how long it will run." - Farley Elliott
