Cafe sketches - Understory, 8/16/2022

Understory restaurant is on our way home from downtown Oakland and we were always curious about their cuisine. A few weeks ago, we read about several Bay Area restaurants that won James Beard awards for dining, and Understory was one of the winners. We found out that they are a collective of chefs that celebrate the diverse cultures and cuisines in Oakland. We had to try it.

Elote corn, Thai salad, and Caribbean oxtail


The food was delicious. We had a Thai-inspired salad, an Caribbean oxtail dish, and elote corn. I also had a rose-infused, spiked lemonade cocktail - yum!
