runner & stone

this weekend while jill was in town visiting, we met up with some friends for brunch in gowanus at runner & stone. upon entering the restaurant, we were immediately intoxicated by the delicious smells of freshly baked bread and pastries. the head baker, Peter Endriss, used to work at per se and bouchon so he really knows his bread! we all loved our dishes and at the end of our meal, our waiter dubbed us members of the "clean plate club." hehe.

not only was the food delicious, but i really loved the design of the restaurant itself as well. each month, they showcase a different artist's work which is available for purchase. you can see more pics of the interior here. it makes me so happy to see the gowanus area growing with yummy restaurants along third avenue.
