How the day works
Grilled food is at its best when it is hot, so we cook to order through service. Slow-cooked meats are ready as soon as service begins, which keeps the queue moving. By late September, sunset in Golden Pot is about 7:05pm; in December it’s about 4:00pm. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.
