At this 20-seat jewel-box restaurant husband-and-wife team, Chef Ed and Laura Verner, serve up an inspired Kiwi menu emphasizing native ingredients, fermentations, preservations and natural wines. Later in the show, singer-guitarist, Jordan Robin, and multi-instrumentalist, Byron Kalet, of Brooklyn band, Lover, stop by our studio for a live performance. Known for their melodic, minimalist sound, Lover will give us a listen to songs from their first full-length album, \"Am I Safe?,\" which dropped this past week."}
