As a self-proclaimed bon vivant , I take great pride in my taste. Here are some of my favorites
Restaurants
- Del Posto– Decadent Italian dishes with an extraordinary wine list
- Dirt Candy– Inventive vegetarian tasting menus, a summertime favorite
- Per Se– Luxe gastronomic cuisine, better described as a journey rather than a meal
- Kajitsu– shojin ryori inspired omakase that focuses on seasonal produce
- Blue Hill– patient farm-to-table food made with locally sourced produce and livestock
- Jungsik– Artful, contemporary Korean cuisine with a dessert tasting menu
- Le Bernardin– Eric Ripert’s three Michelin star seafood restaurant is a personal necessity when I’m missing the tastes of Marseille.
