Wolf and Wheat, a new dessert shop, is coming to 1009 E Sixth Street this fall, according to recent reporting in Eater. The restaurant will be led by chef Margarita Kallas-Lee, who co-owns the nationally recognized omakase restaurant Sushi by Scratch with her husband chef Phillip Frankland Lee.
“On deck will be breads, baked goods, desserts, and accompaniments available for takeout services,” the Eater article states.
“Specifically, there will be Sushi by Scratch’s signature dessert, the makrut ice cream bon bons; sourdough bread; and cultured butter. Other items on the changing menu will include buckwheat brownies and oolong tiramisu.”
Readers unfamiliar with this star duo and their awarded Sushi by Scratch brand should note their story, as reported by Eater: “Kallas-Lee and Lee started their culinary carers in California, opening their first restaurant Scratch Kitchen in Beverly Hills in 2013, which relocated into Encino in 2015. They opened omakase spot Sushi|Bar in Los Angeles in 2017, and expanded with an Austin pop-up in December 2020, which turned into a permanent restaurant in August 2021. During that time, they also opened the original Pasta|Bar in Los Angeles in June 2020, which earned a Michelin star the following year (and continues to hold onto that star).”
No specific opening date has been announced.
