The chef describes the bistro as an “autobiography told through food.” “The whole place is inspired by my travels and meals that make me happy,” Fairman said. “...

Fairman, who is from Carmichael, is also the creator of the restaurant’s mascot: Munchie Man. The hand-drawn stick figure character will be a part of the dining spot’s identity and theme.
