Trio Restaurant, Bakery and Market opened July 1, bringing a Dean and Delucca-style restaurant to downtown Sacramento with a mix of farm-to-table and imported foods.

Chef and owner Gönül Blum said Thursday that details are still being finalized – with a liquor license effective Friday and glass coverings for the fresh meats section coming soon.

“So much of the food comes from my garden and is served in the restaurant,” Blum said. “And I have certificates from the farmers to show that the food is farm-to-table.”

Blum said she likes to focus on local ingredients to create Mediterranean-themed dishes, including some from her homeland of Turkey.

A small retail space in the front of the restaurant carries specialty items such as imported olive oils and local roasted nuts.

The restaurant, located at 826 J St., is open from 11 a.m. - 9 p.m. on weekdays and from 11 a.m. - 10 p.m. on weekends. Blum said she hopes to eventually get a full bar, and keeping Trio open later.

Lucca is a local overpriced expense account success, Dean & DeLuca is a highly-regarded national specialty foodie porn franchise chain, and Trio is already dusty & empty even @ lunch hour.

Good luck, Ms. Blum! I've enjoyed your other food spots & you've generally offered quality & value. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you'll be able to make a go of it for dinners. Hopefully you'll be able to offer a fun & exciting happy hour to bring people in after work.
