Daily Candy Yelp & the tablehopper

Every Thursday evening the Velo Rouge Cafe , which is certified green by the Green Café Network (http://www.greencafenetwork.org/), is transformed from a great place to grab a cup of Blue Bottle coffee and take advantage of free wireless access, to a cozy restaurant where I offer a four course $45 prix fixe menu based on, and inspired by, what ever is in season at our local farmers’ markets.

We have two seating's every Thursday night at 6:15 and 8:00 p.m.  Each seating can accommodate up to 24 guests at 2-3 communal tables.

My goal is to create a fun, classy, yet casual communal dining experience where you can chat with your tablemate's (or not), and enjoy creative, tasty, sustainable and predominately locally sourced food.
