Description

You can see Homegrown's grasp of the zeitgeist in the progression of ceiling-high blackboards that mark your path to the cash register.

    Versus: In a Pickle at Homegrown and People's Pub

    | Wed, June 09, 2010

    The Dish: The key to a good fried pickle is not in the pickle itself, but in the breading. The majority of fried pickles we've tasted have a coating that, with little prodding, falls right off in a greasy mess. What's the point of deep-frying anyt... More »

    Homegrown Sandwiches: Fantasies Fulfilled

    | Wed, May 27, 2009

    Sandwiches are the haiku of the food world: No one is too daunted to get creative. The reason, I think, is that as children we're given free rein to design our own. Even parents who institute a five-foot rule around the oven let their kids go mad ... More »
