Los Angeles – Melisse
Los Angeles Melisse
A few years back, Melisse faced closure. However, Josiah Citrin, the resident chef, reestablished the joint from the ground up. He also managed to establish another restaurant named Citrin within the same property. Sharing an identical French-influenced cuisine on the sampling menu, Citrin benefits from a revamped modern chic. Altogether, the newfound joint expects $230 a head.
Brooklyn – Blanca
Brooklyn Blanca
If you ever fancied dinner in an intensely intimate setting, Blanca is the petit Brooklyn restaurant which provides sampling menus four out of seven evenings for a maximum of a dozen guests. Dishes can be eaten straight from the kitchen counter within a plain, pale ambiance. Don’t underestimate this restaurant, however, as it has two Michelin Stars, meaning that this is obviously a wonderful experience. Total cost: $195 a head.
