By night, DTLA hotspot Orsa & Winston is a full-on prix fixe, Japanese/Italian fine dining restaurant with twenty courses. By day, however, it's got major cool-casual lunching game. So cool and causal, in fact, there are only three main courses on the menu - and they're all bowls. If you're familiar with our obsession with bowls, from smoothies to poke, you've probably guessed that we fell head-over-heels for Chef Josef Centeno's lunch situation. His three other Downtown restos (Bar Amá, Baco Mercat, and Ledlow) are just steps away. Like their prix fixe dinners, Orsa & Winston's bowls are inspired by Italian and Japanese cuisines, but don't expect your stereotypical "fusion" food. Instead, this chef takes subtle cues from each culture and puts his own unique spin on each, marrying them in what we can only describe as Chalkboardy heaven. Burratta and nori? Kelp noodles and seasonal veggies? Be still our hearts. The salsa verde recipe below is the perfect at-home recipe to style up any more casual bowl-making. Chef Josef's combination of herbs, lemon zest and chiles accents just about any ingredient combination really well.
