"It's funny - the kitchen was kind of against it, but the people kept asking for it, so I was like, 'Why not offer it all day?'" Chef John Dirks explains the surprising popularity of the all-day breakfast burrito, highlighting how customer demand can shape menu offerings in unexpected ways, especially at a place like Ironwoods Bar & Grill, located in a historic golf course.
"In Monterey, breakfast is a big thing down there because there's a lot of industry workers who work nights because it's a big tourist town." Dirks shares insight into the breakfast culture in Monterey, emphasizing the importance of hearty, accessible breakfast options for those in the service industry, which informs his approach to creating breakfast dishes at Presidio Golf Course.
"Located inside the clubhouse building at 300 Finley Road, the restaurant offers a full bar and American food, but everything has 'a little more San Francisco' to it..." This description of Ironwoods Bar & Grill captures the essence of local culinary flair fused with traditional American fare, setting the stage for patrons to expect innovative and regionally-inspired dishes.
"Presidio Golf Course was built in 1896, which makes it the oldest golf course west of the Mississippi River." This historical fact adds to the allure of dining at Ironwoods Bar & Grill, providing guests not only with exceptional food but also with a unique cultural experience.
