Derek Barnes: Executive Chef/Owner
Question: What is Derek’s Culinary Casual?
Answer: An absolutely delightful spot for mid-week lunch!
Smoked Pulled Pork Sandwich: A perfectly toasted bun (warm and crunchy on the outside; slightly charred on the inside) was the ideal vessel holding moist, stringy, tender pork with layers of subtle flavor. This is truly a refined pulled pork sandwich; absolutely delicious! In fact, I nominated it on my Foodspotting page.
Chopped Wild Salmon Salad: A plate full of flavor, color, texture, and goodness. The light, healthy, and satisfying lunch
Bell & Evans Chicken Banh Mi Sandwich: An interesting twist of this Vietnamese staple, full of flavor and textures. Once you taste this chicken, ordinary chicken will never do again. Amazing.
Banana Cream Custard: A signature dessert and one we always order. Also a Foodspotting nomination!
In addition to the above, Derek’s has many other lunch options.
