POV: you’re having seared scallops for dinner🔥🌱

They’re delicate, tender, melt-in-your-mouth, and one of our absolute favorites. Made from daikon radish and served with salty ëgg yolk, black pepper collard greens, capers + toasted walnut.

With a little imagination, creativity, and the right technique, you can turn plants into pretty much anything you want. And right now, all we want are these...

Come join us in the garden! 🌱

Every Tuesday from 3–5pm at The Plot Garden Project’s Tremont Community Garden.

Our garden is such a magical place, and we love sharing it with you. Every Tuesday, we get together for a few hours of planting, learning, growing, and connecting over snacks, stories, and a little dirt on our hands.

It’s been so wonderful seeing our community come together, and having you be part of it makes it even more special.

No experience or RSVP needed. Just bring a smile, maybe some gloves, and come grow something good with us!

Shepherd’s Pie!

A longtime Plot classic and one of Chef Davin’s family recipes that we’ve been serving up for years. Hearty, savory, and layered with so many comforting flavors, from our rich meatless gravy to the creamy mashed potatoes on top, served alongside seasonal veggies.

It’s nourishing, satisfying, and everything we crave this time of year, especially as the weather starts to cool down. A little comfort on a plate, made with lots of love.

Come on in, cozy up, and dig in.

Another beautiful night for the books. 🇫🇷🌿❤️

Our French Countryside dinner was everything we love about these evenings in the garden. Incredible food, friends, community, and the warmth of the fire under the moonlight.

These dinners give our chefs a chance to play, get creative, and put together entirely new menus inspired by the season and the ingredients we’re growing and sourcing from our friends. And the best part? Getting to share it all with you around the table, enjoying good food, great conversation, and each other’s company.

Much love to our entire team for making these nights possible, to Philip Roxworthy for the incredible outdoor kitchen that brings the fire, and to DUPLA | Photography & Art Direction for capturing all these beautiful moments.

We’ve got ONE more Garden Series dinner coming up next Tuesday, and this time we’re getting spooky ! Halloween in the Garden is our final dinner of the season, and we’d love for you to join us. Tickets in bio!

There’s something magical about this garden, but it’s even better when you’re here sharing it with us. ❤️🌱

Tremont Community Garden Update! 🌱

Live from the The Plot Garden Project on South Tremont St! Chef Davin has a little update on what’s growing, what’s coming, and how things are shaping up as we make our way into fall.

Between the wild weather, some very hungry caterpillars, and a whole lot of replanting, we’ve had our hands full! But the garden is bouncing back. We’ve still got several varieties of basil, kale, chard, and lettuce to share, with celery, brussels sprouts, cauliflower + plenty more on the way.

And a HUGE thank you to all of our wonderful volunteers who keep showing up on Tuesdays (3-5pm, all are welcome!) to lend a hand! We love getting our hands dirty with you, sharing what we know, learning from each other, making new friends, and enjoying a few Plot snacks along the way. This is what community gardening is all about 💚

We grow all of this for YOU, and there’s nothing we love more than seeing you stop by, pick something fresh, take it home, cook with it, and enjoy it. Or just wander through, see what’s growing, and strike up a conversation. There’s always something happening out here, and we love sharing it with you.

So next time you’re in South O, take a little stroll through the garden, grab some herbs or veggies, and enjoy the fruits (and vegetables) of our labor. Just leave a little for your neighbors 😉

QUICHE MICHELLE 🌱
— with chickpea ëgg, truffle, caramelized onions, burnt kale, and bitter greens salad.

*available for brunch this weekend starting 10/17, until we run out*

“Really we just wanted to do a classic quiche Loraine, with truffle of course, funny story is that the base of this recipe goes back to before we opened, we originally planned on being an all day concept and this was going to be on the breakfast menu. We don’t have a Lorraine that works here but luckily we have Michelle!!

My favorite part of this dish is actually the salad, I love bitter greens and the dressing is made from the oil we used to confeit the vegetable course from our French countryside dinner a few nights ago.” ~Davin Waite
