Where I Go Out
Darphin potato and uni
$$, French, Wine Bar, Full Bar, Lower East Side
"Great way to start in NYC. Loved @jeremiahlawrence merci beaucoup"
Spicy langoustine penne pasta
$$$$, Italian, Pacific Palisades
"All the pasta at Giorgio's is so good, but this one stands the test of time. It is a classic here and I love it. The sauce is just spicy enough, and the pasta is always cooked perfectly. I usually order a double portion."
Banana-nut pancakes
$, American, Breakfast,
"Being from France, I never had pancakes until I moved to America. I discovered Uncle Bill's after surfing one morning in Manhattan Beach. All the pancakes are great, but I love the banana nut pancakes. Order with eggs over-easy and some bacon. You won't regret it."
Tlayuda guelaguetza
$$, Mexican, Breakfast, Mid City West
"This thin, crisp flatbread, sort of a Oaxacan pizza, combines three different meats and is served with black bean paste and queso. A little of everything on your fork is an amazing bite. You can't go wrong with an order of Festival de Moles either. So gooood!"
Egg caviar
$$$$, French, Downtown
"This dish is made of a poached egg, served with lemon and chive crème fraîche and heaped with American Osetra caviar. It's a dish filled with memories for me from my time in France and as the chef at L'Orangerie. Every time I eat chef Josiah Citrin's version, it brings back so many wonderful memories. It's a classic that's always perfectly executed at Mélisse."
At My Venues
Onion soup
$$$, French, Full Bar, Hollywood
"This is the best version I’ve ever had. Everything about this classic is perfect."
Big Mec
$$$, French, Full Bar, Hollywood
"For when you’re feeling little bit fancy. Great flavors and quality. Make sure to swab the rest of the sauce with a nice French baguette."
Lamb rib en croute with cabbage, miso, & lime
$$$$, French, New American, Hollywood
