The Best Way to Start the Weekend
If you cannot always count on the weather for one of these sunsets over the Santa Monica Bay, have no doubt that chef Chad Huff will delight you with “The Caviar Tour.”
Chef Huff chose three of his favorite domestic and international preparations to showcase the rich and nutty profile of ossetra.
The sampling is composed of three distinctive bites:
• French: buckwheat blini, crème fraîche, and chives
• Spanish: focaccia, ricotta, hardboiled egg yolk, and Ibérico ham
• American: bagel crisp, lemon cream, red onion, smoked salmon.
Sophie‘s Note: This is a perfect time around a plate to impress your date. Don’t forget to pair with some bubbles.

But, Wait, Don’t Leave Yet…
Since you are there, you might as well extend your evening with seafood dishes, such as the Prince Edward Island Mussels in a chorizo broth; the gigantic and perfectly cooked Day Boat Scallops, on a delicious bed of faro, corn purée, grilled corn and summer squash (maybe I will ask the chef for the recipe); or the Local Black Cod in a tomato dashi.
Do not bypass the Basque Cheesecake. The Raspberry Rice Pudding is another sweet option.
