Creative, Darling & Delicious
In the time btwn when we made reservations and some weeks later when we dined there, their Michelin star was announced and awarded, increasing our anticipation. Not knowing what to expect, we were pleasantly surprised. Coming up fr OC, the location was different, but the actual bldg and space was utterly lovely. We parked on the street, adjacent to the nearby Target. There was a dapper young gentleman who greeted us as we approached, easing our concern whether we were at the right place. Once inside, we were escorted to a winsome courtyard. The tables and chairs alone, seemed casual; but the lighting, the ambiance, the place & table settings kicked it up a few notches, elevating the experience.
The food was mostly delicious, with a course or two being a miss for me. And like others have mentioned on other sites, I would skip the wine pairing; go instead for their delicious cocktails! What else did we love? The early seafood dishes, pork belly, the mochi, palate cleansers and desserts. What didn’t work for me was the seared fish…and I LOVE seafood (though this may have been our fault bc we were late to our reservation by nearly 30 min and I would hazard a guess that these were all cooked at nearly the same time). With each course, the servers would explain the ingredients. For the exquisite smoked course, chef Minh Pham served us herself. She is just so cute, talented and captivating! At the end of dinner, there were some parting treats of caramel.
What I’m finding that I enjoy dining at restaurants where I can meet the chef (Shibumi, Vespertine, Taco Maria), prepay for dinner and have a little takeaway parting treats…it really changes the dining experience. Would I recommend Phenakite? Absolutely! For me, when I meet the personality behind the talent and skill, it really makes an impact on the whole dining experience. I LOVE Phenakite.
