Charlie Palmer at Bloomingdale's South Coast Plaza Description:
Chef and restaurateur Charlie Palmer (Aureole NYC, Aureole Vegas, Métrazur, Charlie Palmer Steak DC, Charlie Palmer Steak Vegas, Dry Creek Kitchen) has elevated OC's culinary scene with his New American cuisine and modern wine shop. Located inside Bloomingdale's at South Coast Plaza, the interior features an airy main dining room with sunny yellow walls and organic touches like burlap curtains, rolled leather banquettes and wood floors. Chef Amar Santana presides over the kitchen and makes Charlie Palmer proud with his innovative and flavorful dishes. A business and ladies-who-lunch crowd shows up during the midday meal for the reasonable prix-fixe lunch deal. At dinner, start with chef Santana's house-made charcuterie plate, which shows up with two kinds of pâté, dried salami, prosciutto and classic accoutrements. Or, try something savory like roasted bone marrow with raisin marmalade, oxtail stuffed with piquillo peppers or a grilled lamb burger with cucumber yogurt. For mains, we enjoy the citrus-glazed Scottish salmon and Sonoma rack of lamb. Desserts are just as impressive, such as a port-poached pear with vanilla semifreddo, hazelnuts and rosemary tuile. A prix-fixe Sunday brunch features make-it-yourself Bloody Mary cocktails with both classic and non-traditional ingredients like freshly-made gazpacho juice, lime juice, Worcestershire, sriracha and crunchy celery sticks. Want wine? Charlie Palmer's Next Vintage wine shop features topnotch international varietals that can be bought by the glass, bottle or case.
