s it settles into its cozy, 28-seat downtown Palo Alto home at Hamilton and Cowper streets, Thyme doesn’t necessarily need more talent in the kitchen. It needs more time.

On the heels of recent seasonal California cuisine openings like BirdDog and Lure + Till, Thyme is the next local entrant for the genre.

A taste of the cast iron skillet-fried Scottish salmon ($24.50) and you’ll know this restaurant is a keeper that hopefully will continue Palo Alto’s culinary growth. The preparation of the salmon with just a lemon wedge, wilted spinach (cucumber was on the menu but not available), and a mixed greens salad was overly simple, especially for the price, but the salmon itself was cooked to that perfect state, leaving it both flaky and juicy.

Mulling over the Palo Alto dining scene, however, Haddaway opted instead to pursue the casual-California direction with a British inf luence. The British element only showed up recently in grilled sausages with mashed potatoes, cabbage and bacon ($24.50) and an excellent apple and cinnamon custard tart ($8.50), which is the only sweet dessert available. Meanwhile, California arrives with an evening endive and avocado salad ($12.50) topped with not-enough crab, brightened

Chef-owner Winston Haddaway is the key to the restaurant, as he’s the only chef. He’s a native of Trinidad, but met his wife Carol in England, and stayed there to run his own gastropub in London’s hip Camden neighborhood for years. His wife moved to Silicon Valley for work and Haddaway followed a few years later. For the past decade, he has worked the private-chef and events circuit, all the while dreaming of opening another gastropub.

with pink grapefruit segments and a beautiful grapefruit dressing to tie everything together. For starters, it’s this salad or soup. Get the salad.

I was skeptical how the rack of lamb ($27.50) would emerge after a hesitant waiter didn’t understand what “medium rare” meant and said he would tell the chef to cook between rare and medium.

But Haddaway nailed it. The lamb, with a rosy hue in the center, just the right amount of gaminess, was tender with a slick char to the exterior and topped with a red-wine reduction sauce.

At both lunch and dinner, there is a bowl of linguine with parsley pesto ($16.50) clinging to the strands, tossed with asparagus spears and covered in a f lurry of shaved Parmesan cheese. It is resolutely seasonal, hearty and fresh, but won’t quite take diners to a pasta epiphany.

An addition of an herb, spice or produce would be more than welcome. It’s simple California cooking that tasted like sunshine but didn’t taste like fun.

Lunch brought a messy and oversized marinated rib-eye sandwich with mushrooms on focaccia bread ($14.50). Some of the beef was succulent and juicy, but other bites yielded more f labby gristle than a diner would desire. Like the pasta, the sandwich badly needed a sauce or aioli and some supporting ingredients to create a full package.

Garlic toast ($12.50) came topped with a poached egg,

surrounded by confetti-like chopped onions and bell peppers to scoop up the yolk when the egg gets punctured. A fine dish, but there were a lot of peppers and onions.

Day and night, the mainstay I’d gladly order again is a warm goat cheese with dried apricots, pine nuts, honey and English biscuits to scoop it all up ($8.50).

Things are changing at Thyme. Just before the dead-

line for this review, the restaurant announced lunch is ending in order to focus on dinner. Curiously, Thyme started as a lunch-only restaurant for its f irst two months. As a dinner destination, wine will be pivotal.

Right now, the list has six wines, and five of them are far from exciting. Haddaway cares deeply about wine and said he plans for growth in this department.

PUBLIC NOTICE FORMER NAVAL AIR STATION MOFFETT FIELD Restoration Advisory Board Meeting

May 2016

The next regular meeting of the Restoration Advisory Board (RAB) for former Naval Air Station (NAS) Moffett Field will be held on:

Thursday, May 12, 2016, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at: Mountain View Senior Center Social Hall 266 Escuela Avenue, Mountain View, CA 94040-1813

The rib-eye steak sandwich is smothered with mushrooms.

Of all the work-in-progress components at Thyme, service is clearly the most under-construction. The owners are still trying to find the right ratio of servers-to-diners but the fact is, how many restaurants of any size have only one server on the f loor? The servers were well-intentioned, but I eventually just stopped counting the slip-ups: not pouring wine from bottles, no serving utensils, long waits to order — and the hits kept coming.

The interior is serene and simple. In typical 2016 fashion, reclaimed wood dominates everywhere, from the bare tables to the chairs to the f loor. Windows wrap half of the space, allowing for peoplewatching by day. Another wall includes a plush burgundy banquette and a screen made of twigs that could be in a tatami room. Give some bonus points to Thyme for one of the most well-kept restrooms in town, with real towels for hand drying.

The soundtrack pretty much sums up where Thyme is right now: Sometimes you’ll hear French classics, then you’ll hear nothing for five minutes because the music player and the credit card machine happen to run from the same phone. It will be intriguing

Weekend Q MOVIEOPENINGS

The blue and the grey and the red and the yellow ‘CAPTAIN AMERICA’ FACES IRON MAN IN ‘CIVIL WAR’ 0001/2 (Century 16 and 20) When it comes to superhero culture, can there be too much of a good thing?

That’s the conundrum facing the purveyors of the shareduniverse paradigm: early adopter Marvel and Johnny-come-lately DC. Marvel Studios’ unprecedented plan, in cahoots with Disney — and a generally enthusiastic reception from fans and critics alike — reaches a new zenith with “Captain America: Civil War,” which proves more satisfying than the heavily hyped “Avengers” films that preceded it.

Here we have a superhero movie that gathers no fewer than 15 heroes and villains in roles that amount to considerably more than cameos. They populate a sprawling story with marching orders to serve as a direct sequel to “Captain America: The Winter Soldier.” And it resolves the can of worms that film opened concerning Cap’s sidekick-turned”Manchurian Candidate” supersoldier “Bucky” Barnes, played

by Sebastian Stan.

This crazy-cool superhero team-up/smack-down movie

makes “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” look like a tea party, and it’s a franchiselaunching introduction to the new Spider-Man (teenage Tom Holland).

Seemingly, it’s everything a comic-book junkie would expect from a single Marvel movie, and more. For the price of a single ticket, you get a James Bondian film-opening action sequence, times four (heroes); a centerpiece six-on-six clash of the superheroic titans; and a twisty, thistime-its-personal fight climax, along with enough quips to get you double-checking the credits for a Joss Whedon assist. (Nope.

All screenwriting credit goes to Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely).

This is what one calls “an incredibly high degree of difficulty,” and the writers join directors Anthony and Joe Russo in sticking the landing. Non-comicbook-geeks may struggle to keep up with the storyline, and the frantic action (especially in 3D) may prompt some to lapse into diabetic comas, but those people will be the 1-percenters of what’s

sure to be this movie’s massive global audience.

I haven’t forgotten to tell you what the film is about, although does it matter? As in “Batman v Superman,” questions of collateral damage (as Avengers “routinely ignore sovereign borders”) plague our heroes, prompting U.S. Secretary of State Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross (William Hurt) to announce that the U.N. has drafted a superhero-control act dubbed the Sokovia Accords, set to be ratified by 117 countries.

Ross would like the Avengers to sign it, thank you very much.

And there’s the sticking point of this “Civil War”: Steve “Captain America” Rogers (Chris Evans) doesn’t trust nations to set agendas when the stakes remain so high, while Tony “Iron Man” Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.) feels it’s time to earn back some trust.

Heroes old and new line up with Team Cap or Team Iron Man. It’s just the discord the mysterious baddie Helmut Zemo (Daniel Brühl) wants: “to see an empire fall.” And it’s just what a modern movie audience craves: prime action-adventure fare.

Markus and McFeely serve

the extraordinary number of characters with their impressive construct, and this Captain America movie builds to the Tom Joad-esque promise of “If you need me, I’ll be there,” while pausing to allow Iron Man to groom Spidey and put him to the test. It matters not to my not-soinner child that “Civil War” has new players but few genuinely new themes or tricks. Says he: yes, please.

Rated PG-13 for extended sequences of violence, action and mayhem. Two hours, 27 minutes.

Leaps and Boundaries LOVING MOTHER CROSSES LINES IN ‘MEDDLER’ 000 (Aquarius) In her new film “The Meddler,” writer-director Lorene Scafaria encapsulates the essence of her lead character and the tone of the film within its opening moments.

In her apartment, Marnie Minervini (Susan Sarandon) stares up at the ceiling in seeming despair. After a long pause, a chipper narration kicks in. “Anyway...” Marnie begins, sitting up in bed to face another day with her whirling-dervish optimism.

It’s not as easy as Marnie makes it look, for although she’s pleased as punch to be living by the Grove and hatching plans to volunteer at a hospital, Marnie is also struggling with grief over the loss of her husband.

The lioness’ share of Marnie’s love has shifted to her daughter, Lori (Rose Byrne), in a manner that suggests the film’s title. Marnie crosses every boundary with Lori. Unannounced, the mother lets herself into Lori’s apartment and sets to offering tons of unso28

licited advice, such as “I think we should get you a hobby” or, worse, telling her how to date and who to sleep with. She even advises Lori’s therapist on how to treat her.

One of the key reasons that “The Meddler” works as a delightfully humane comedy is that it doesn’t insist upon the meddling as a “premise” but as an important part of the film’s psychological reality. While never really infringing on the film’s essential comedic lightness, Scafaria keeps the tone anxious. It also helps that Scafaria’s starting point wasn’t a “high concept” but her own life, with Marnie’s wellrounded personality based on the writer’s own mother and the character of Lori, a screenwriter, based on Scafaria herself.

The little things make a difference. This isn’t “Ricki and the Flash” (thankfully), so while there’s a pot-smoking scene, it’s funny because it’s true, not a parody of reality. Whether it’s a

commitment to salt bagels or a “why not?” attitude to befriending an Apple Store “Genius” (Jerrod Carmichael), Marnie doesn’t just stay this side of credible; she’s a dead ringer for someone you have known: that “meddler”/guardian angel who’s extravagantly giving of time

and resources (Marnie recklessly spends her late husband’s money) but who is a little too needy (she can’t be alone).

And then there’s the big thing that makes a difference: a movie star. Susan Sarandon has of late been relegated mostly to supporting roles, so it’s a distinct

pleasure to see her “taking” the screen again in a big way. With no hint of condescension but evident love, Sarandon nails Marnie’s level of sophistication (a few notches lower than the actress’ own), her joie de vivre (at, Continued on next page

say, stumbling into movie extra work), and her reticence when it comes to emotional risk (closure on her husband’s death).

That last one also includes sweet romance with a kind divorcee (J.K. Simmons, amusingly doing Sam Elliott), a better choice than the eager suitor that leaves her running away serpentine. In short, “The Meddler” is the Mother’s Day comedy to put a smile on your face and keep it there, even if your eyes get a little watery.

Rated PG-13 for brief drug content. One hour, 40 minutes.

Q MOVIEREVIEWS

ELVIS & NIXON 000 It’s an encounter that has fascinated Americans since 1972, when the December 1970 secret meeting between Elvis and President Richard Nixon was made public by the Washington Post.

The tale gets the deluxe treatment in Liza Johnson’s “Elvis & Nixon,” a film starring Michael Shannon (Elvis) and Kevin Spacey (Nixon). Though the meeting was, per Elvis, to remain secret, Nixon cannily supposed he could leverage it for credibility with young people. Elvis wished to shore up his self-importance as a patriot eager to serve as a “Federal Agent at Large” for the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs (a nonexistent position). It’s a story of great power and great delusion, but the real point of a movie is to be a hoot. Shannon’s powerful presence and towering talent carry the day, and Spacey makes one of his subtlest “impressions” as a president unexpectedly engaged by this successful good ol’ boy, a gun lover and a karate practitioner. Rated R for some language.

One hour, 26 minutes. — P.C.

MILES AHEAD 000 Only a fool would say actor-writerdirector Don Cheadle’s “Miles Ahead — a passion-project examination of jazz legend Miles Davis — lacks creativity, heart, energy and a gutsy willingness to take risks. The film begins in the late ‘70s, with Davis in semi-reclusion, pistolwielding, suffering from a degenerative hip disorder and blurred by drug use. It’s this Davis that music reporter Dave Braden (Ewan McGregor) chases for a story, but Braden gets more than he bargained for when he becomes embroiled in a scrum over master tapes for Davis’ ostensible comeback recording. “Miles Ahead” stretches its muscles in yogic postures: in its evocative nonlinearity and insights into Davis’ thought processes. Flashbacks to the late ‘50s depict Davis’ brilliance in the studio and his volatile passion for first wife Frances Taylor (Emayatzy Corinealdi).

On screen, a magnetic Cheadle proves simpatico with Davis, and the flight-offancy finale is both understatedly moving and potently musical. Rated R for strong language throughout, drug use, some sexuality/nudity and brief violence. One hour, 40 minutes. — P.C.
