Why? Because they easily rival the meats and seafood here in terms of fullness of flavour and deliciousness.
The Corn ($10++) has sweet kernels swirled in a chives-speckled light creaminess from manchego cheese. Fluttery bonito flakes complete the equation with a touch of the sea-voury.
The Brussels Sprouts ($12++) sees the crunchy vegetable grilled, then tossed with guanciale (an Italian cured pork) and a miso ricotta. I find this combination really quite spectacular. So even if you've always avoided brussels sprouts like the plague, I say: Give this a go. It might change your mind about the much-maligned vegetable.
