22 "Tastings" @ Saam
Saam @ The Bazaar....
Saam is the private dining room located at The Bazaar in Beverly Hills. They are open three days out of the week (Thursday, Friday, and Saturday) offering a 21 Course Tasting Menu to an exclusive 10 Tables lucky enough to get a reservation. Felix Meana (Service Manager ) of The Bazaar has worked with Ferran Adria at El Bulli for 5 years in Spain and has worked very hard to mimic a lot the service standards taken from Adria's training. We all know Jose Andres and Ferran are great friends who have worked side by side for a little while which adds to the success of this restaurant. I read a lot of reviews and hyped this place up for a year now. Now, I finally got the opportunity to eat here and all the rants and raves are very true. The food and service is phenomenal. Playful, elegant, modern, and tasty are 4 of the many words that can explain what The Bazaar is. Try it for yourself and experience the culinary journey of 22 courses and interactive dining.

This weekend I ate at Joel Robuchon in Las Vegas, the only three star michelen rated restaurant in Las Vegas. Service thoughout the entire dinner was absolutely insane. The attention to detail and knowledge from the front of the house staff was mind blowing. I did not expect any less from Joel Robuchon. The Food was executed very well to say the least. Simple, modern, and refined. That is all you can ask for in a great dining experience.
