Beast, king of comfort food, is known for doling out decadent plates of fried chicken sandwiches smothered in gravy, fried gnocchi with ragu and bone marrow with snail marsala.
The restaurant, like many others, has shut its doors due to COVID-19, leaving many of us missing hearty brunches at the King West outpost. If you're looking to bring a little comfort into your home, make these warm and buttery parker house rolls, thanks to Beast's original recipe.
