Let’s talk about brunch, shall we? Not the polite, predictable affair with its Benedict eggs and avocado toast (though I do love both, don’t get me wrong). I’m talking about the kind of brunch that makes you want to cancel your afternoon plans and linger at the table, possibly with a spicy Bloody Mary in hand, definitely with friends who don’t mind if you lick your fingers.

This one’s got all the good stuff: a sweet and sticky homemade teriyaki sauce, flakey roasted salmon, garlicky greens, and nutty quinoa. It’s the kind of dinner that feels a bit fancy but totally doable on a Tuesday.
