Wonder what’s been going on with the restaurant going into the old site of Minestraio? Beau Laughlin and Brett Cranston of the Hudson alongside chef Jason Tuley of Santa Barbara’s Square One, bring us the Orlando hotel’s newest restaurant The Churchill. Herbs, vegetables, and more of the restaurant’s ingredients will be grown in a garden, planted on the restaurant’s roof. The seasonal American menu will feature charcuterie, pasta, pickled vegetables, artisan pizzas and fresh breads. In addition to indoor seating, there will also be a garden patio, sidewalk patio, and a take-out window serving their Intelligentsia coffee, breakfast items, sandwiches, pizza by the slice, and homemade ice cream. The bar will serve a variety of handmade cocktails, regional beers and a wine menu heavy on the California vintages. Big wooden communal tables, old records, books, and a photo booth will finish off its ambiance for decor. Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be served seven days a week, plus a weekend brunch, of course. It will be open soon. So stay tuned to the Orlando and the Churchill sites for exact opening dates.
