This rustic-hip Midtown bistro serves imaginative New Southern fare and it does not disappoint, be it at breakfast ($8 to $11) or throughout the remains of the day. It makes its own bagels, the attention to coffee detail approaches Pacific Northwest levels, and it mixes fried chicken, bacon marmalade and pimento cheese on a biscuit!
