A
new “casual highbrow dining” restaurant has opened in Anchorage. Located at 11124 Old Seward Highway, South is a restaurant and coffeehouse (6:30 a.m. to 9 p.m.) serving brunch, lunch, and dinner. All of the menus offer vegan and gluten-free options. Brunch is served until 3 p.m. and includes a wide variety of egg options—four varieties of eggs Benedict, omelets, egg scrambles, a breakfast burrito, and croque madame—in addition to traditional breakfast favorites like pancakes, French toast, granola, parfait, and a pull apart monkey bread appetizer. Lunch is served from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and features soups, such as French onion and roasted tomato and kale; salads, including kale Caesar, niçoise, and roasted beet salads; various burgers and sandwiches; and locally sourced Alaska seafood, such as various mussel bowls and vodka battered fish and chips. Many of the soup, salad, and sandwich options are also available for dinner, as is the croque madame. Additionally, dinner guests can choose from “large plates,” which include pan seared Alaska salmon, a vegetable risotto, pork picatta, and spaghetti vino e verdure. The restaurant offers a large selection of beverages, including eight rotating taps of local brews, Kaladi Bros. coffee, and red and white wines. Those with a sweet tooth can enjoy salted caramel cheesecake, blueberry skillet pie, olive oil carrot cake, or a fresh berry pavlova. The new restaurant’s coffeehouse has its own seating section, and in the beautiful Alaska weather guests can enjoy outdoor seating as well. South’s dining room is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. southak.com R
