A very innovative and subtle Asian fusion “popup” downtown in LA…
Incredibly far away, but combining some solid dim sum, quite well executed Peking Duck, and a wine menu of other regional dishes…
I’ve had Mexican Omakase (at Babita) but I’ve never had Taco Omakase!
Another major datapoint in the lengthy DimSumQuest study…
Some very tasty (mostly) raw seafood on Santa Monica’s main street…
This stop is totally off color for me…
An interesting, different, and more “refined” SGV hot pot experience…
An amazing multi-hour Champagne lunch at LA’s highest (and one of its best) restaurants…
Two extensive meals at Mr. T show off this great new kitchen’s stuff…
Some hit or miss SGV Cantonese along with a whole lotta Champagne…
A super fun, over-the-top, flaming wagyu tomahawk, smoking A5 kinda night…
Very comprehensive coverage of the SGV’s most entry into the “high end” dim sum market…
Epic birthday dinner for Sebastian at Walter Manzke’s newest place…
Totally awesome sushi omakase and Salon!
Food and build out are just so much more elegant than any other LA area Chinese restaurant…
Some more lunch explorations in the Far SGV (Hacienda Heights) — few have what it takes for such adventures…
An epic birthday celebration at Citrin…
A very fun big private meal banquet in the Arcadia (mall) branch of big Chinese chain Meizhou Dongpo…
I finally got to try a real Chiles en Nogada — that alone was worth the price of admission…
