A Beacon of Culinary Excellence: Spago Beverly Hills
Address | 176 N Canon Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90210
As a sous chef at the opening of Spago Beverly Hills, this fine dining experience will always recall a time for me when we hustled hard under intense conditions to keep the machine running, feeding the frenzy of celebrities with paparazzi parked outside. It was a time that you can’t fully understand unless you experienced it. Returning 22 years later, now with my wife, the bonds and conversations with those that have stayed on and steady transition back to that time and with ease we remember the laughs, the grind, and the chaos that went into making Spago Beverly Hills the cultural phenomenon that it was.
A homecoming to my early life as a chef, it was a delight to experience how Spago Beverly Hills has maintained constancy and excellence with their cuisine under Executive Chef Ari Rosenson, and some exciting evolution, notably with their new bar program. Under the direction of Adam George Fournier, I was impressed by the creative cocktail menu and after our first round, I found that the cocktails so nicely complimented the dishes that we continued with cocktails rather than wine for the full meal. When dining at Spago Beverly Hills be sure to try some of the classic favorites like the Spicy Big Eye Tuna Tartare Cones and—my personal favorite—the Agnolotti del Plin. Whatever your preference, you can’t go wrong with your order, each dish is perfectly executed. Be sure to save room for dessert! With her Viennese heritage my wife was all in for the Kaiserschmarrn with strawberries. Served table side, this dessert is sweet and pillowy and absolutely delicious.
It was an great evening made excellent by the warmth of familiar faces and shared laughs.
