Also going to Cafe Basque Sunday night!
But Majordomo Riz au lair is better than Cafe Basque

I think I saw that Pasjoli has brought back the riz au lait with caramelized pineapple in a recent insta story

As far as I’m concerned, 109 has the belt. Going back next month :disguised_face:

haha didn’t see you at Cafe Basque…but it’s a pretty big restaurant. hope you enjoyed it! we did!

yeah I saw that it was coming back too. can’t wait. I think the caramelized pineapple was a great touch

Add ons no longer a thing sadly. I asked for my reservation next month and was too late as he’s decided to stop accepting new orders for now. Hopefully he allows it in the future… :smiling_face_with_tear:

Just left. This was a stupidly good meal. Can’t even think of a nitpick other than maybe id want a little nibble of something after sorbet. More of these kinds of meals in LA please, makes me miss NY less

it’s pretty incredible that this is basically a one man operation. Brian does all the prepping by himself, from making the bread, slicing all the veggies etc.

While dropping off some caviar to him today he was slicing and creating paper thin disks from daikon (?).

Basically breaking even at this point and can’t hire prep staff. That’s how tough it is without an alcohol license

WOW. That is some high level food to be cranking out solo. Much respect to him for the skills and the heart.

He did have one person helping in the kitchen when we went but yeah, wild that he’s doing this mostly solo/completely hands on.

Man I want to eat that toast and the dungy crab dish again rn

What is katuo? Google doesn’t seem to know.

typo, should be katsuo. bonito.
