Foreign Cinema

After you go to Foreign Cinema you’ll know what brunch is really about. They serve a California/Mediterranean inspired menu and opened in 1999. Most nights at dusk they show foreign and independent movies in the courtyard. My favorite side dish was the Smoked Bacon. The bacon was slow-cooked with brown sugar and I would die to have it again. The two chefs who are currently operating Foreign Cinema are Gayle Pirie and John Clark.
