A gleaming complex in Culver, and Hayden is just one of so many glamorous little spots in the midst.
Maybe that was the problem. They got buried and just never got the recognition they deserved. When there are too many choices, people weren't choosing right.
I love Hayden. The ambiance is one of tranquility with quiet animation. I admire the approachable wine list, and it pairs well with the hearty, simple fare.
The Charcuterie & Cheese is a nice combo, a nutty tallegio offsets a feisty sheep pepeto and a saucy, spicy chorizo.
The mains are simple and taste like home. The Roasted Turkey crushes with avocado,
and the Rice Bowl has all the best things. Mix tender shreds of chicken with refreshing pickles and ginger and add a warm, gooey egg and soft shiitake.
It's a comfort food cafe during the day, and the execution of each dish is just perfect. I guess they're closed now, and I think it's Culver City's loss. There's also room for a great cafe, and Hayden was among the betters.
