00:00And just around the corner from my old place is a relatively new neighborhood hangout,
00:07the South End Buttery. You know, when coming to Boston and visiting the South End, you have to
00:11stop at the Buttery. I couldn't help but show you all this great, delicious food that's in front of
00:16us, all made here from scratch. And these cupcakes, these are the ones that Richard has created,
00:21you know, recipes for, and each of them are named after one of his dogs. This one's his current dog,
00:26which is Lily. And I'm going to have a vanilla cupcake. And I'm going to have a little bite.
00:34And so it begins.
00:38Richard Gordon grew up to love food by reading cookbooks and recipes in the New York Times.
00:43And although he practiced law for 15 years, his love for writing and rewriting recipes
00:48grew into his new business venture. The neighborhood really needed some place that
00:52served great coffee, great food, fresh, everything made from scratch. And we decided to open what we
00:58called then South End Buttery, and has kind of developed into just the buttery, because that's
01:03what people call it.
01:04It's like Boston Common, and it's just everyone calls it the Common.
01:06Exactly.
01:07Yeah.
01:09What is it that you would call like a signature dish that you would want me to try?
01:13Well, our brunch menu is really varied. We have really great pancakes. We have French
01:17brioche French toast. We make all the preserves and, you know, fresh whipped cream. We do everything
01:22from scratch. But we also have a lot of great dishes like eggs benedict and really great omelets.
01:27And our omelets are really popular. The two most popular ones, I think, are our Western omelet,
01:32which is just kind of the standard. But we also have a mushroom omelet, which comes with cheese
01:37as well. It's a mixture of wild mushrooms.
01:40I love mushrooms. Oh, a bunch of different mushrooms.
01:42Yeah.
01:42Oh my gosh, I love mushrooms.
01:43And we roast them here ourselves. It's not like a canned product or anything like that.
01:47Is that what we're having?
01:48That's what you're having. It's got a mixture of wild mushrooms that we roast here, and that's
01:55served with some home fries.
01:58Look at that. You guys see that? So I'm going to give it a shot.
02:04Mmm.
