What To Eat at The Fountainhead Under New Chef Cleetus Friedman

Cleetus Friedman started offering new dishes as soon as the former City Provisions chef-owner moved to The Fountainhead. But his first full menu launches on Friday. There are unmistakable signs of his housemade philosophy at work here— especially when he flat out names something “The Cleetus Burger”— and the menu reflects his commitment to local and sustainable ingredients. Also continuing to be reflected is his commitment to beer and spirits— his latest collaboration with Begyle Brewing will debut on May 22 at the bar, and there’s an event Thursday to launch the English Whisky Company. Check out the menu below.
