In Santa Monica….
If yo
u have not reserved a spot, it may already be too late…. I highly reccommend that you check our Upper West’s latest food/liquor pairing.
These special pairings have become a sold out specialty of Upper West Restaurant. Tonight enjoy “French Connection” a Rémy Martin Tasting. Chef Shipp once again steps up the high art of dining with a cognac tasting from Rémy Martin.
Starting off the evening with a Bumble V paired with golden satsuma infused beets drizzled with tomato-ginger vinaigrette, and as Chef Nick calls it “remyified” goat cheese and cilantro.
For the next portion of the meal, enjoy a REMY V.S.O.P paired to perfection with a classic, yet inventive nicoise layered with a Moroccan spiced tuna loin, piquillo-dried tomato concasse, complimented by green bean puree. Add to that a kalamata pistou and egg yolk “granita” and your taste buds will be eternally grateful.
A h
earty main course offers braised beef along with potato puree “Robuchon style,” a hint of fennel and fresno chili, dressed to perfection with sauce à l’orange aigre-douce. The cognac of choice is 1738 Accord Royal, a Rémy Martin classic.
An intermission of sorts will cleanse your palette with a zesty Meyer lemon granite with cucumber and thai basil
The meal is exquisitely ended with an extra dark chocolate mousse topped with salted toffee crumble and cinnamon-coffee powder.
The delectable dining experience and Rémy Martin pairing is offered for $60. Book now as these events usually sell out.
