Muddy Leek is a new brick-n-mortar, made-from-scratch eatery from celebrated catering couple, and Ocean Charter parents, Chef Whitney Flood and Julie Retzlaff of Bon Mélange Catering. Born from years of entertaining experience and a series of underground dinners, Muddy Leek is the couple’s first independent restaurant. Adjacent to the heart of downtown Culver City’s celebrated Helm’s Bakery, Muddy Leek is a true neighborhood destination serving warm and inviting farm-to-table fare in an airy and artistic setting that complements the laid-back vibe of its gracious owners. Committed to creating everything from breads to basics in-house, Muddy Leek makes everything from scratch using only the best and brightest of seasonal ingredients sourced from local farms and vendors. As Chef and proprietor of Muddy Leek, Whitney Flood channels his love for seasonal and sustainable dining on a daily basis.
