The charming Verbena Kitchen sets the stage with exposed brick and brass fixtures that make it a true North Park gem. Most ingredients are sourced locally from the North Park Farmers’ Market, so you know your food is fresh. Try their unique take on chilaquiles, the sauce made with charred guajillo peppers, emulsified with Oaxaca cheese and finished with a splash of red wine vinegar, cinnamon, cloves and the chef’s secret ingredient: tajin. The chilaquiles are topped with black beans, red onion, cilantro, spicy crema and poached eggs.
