How ya living Freddy Smalls? With corn beef hash and slow egg panzanella. That’s right, the West L.A. restaurant begins Sunday brunch this week, offering perfect hangover food under the name “The Cure,” ideal if you let David Fleischer’s cocktails have your way with you a few hours before dawn. Smalls starts cooking at 10:00 A.M., offering dishes like a fried egg sandwich with Benton’s country ham, corned beef and potato hash, and Belgian waffles with bacon butter, along with hair of the dog in drinks like a sarsaparilla and chicory iced coffee cocktail, pickled peach Bellinis, and Bloody Marys.

The restaurant even offers its fried apple cider Brussels sprouts with goat cheese on the new menu, which can be see in full below. Once the clock strikes 2:00 P.M., Smalls will serve a shifting selection of sandwiches including its take on the French dip.
