THINGS
ARE COOKING AT CITRONELLE
The Santa Barbara Inn, located on Ocean Boulevard in Santa Barbara,
has made great strides in updating their seaside property, including
the Citronelle Restaurant, which offers memorable views of sunsets
and sailboats, and was opened by renowned chef Michel Richard.
My compliments to Executive Chef Isabelle Alexandre, who is on
fire in the kitchen creating outstanding seafood specialties and
sensual desserts.. With a history of solid culinary experience
working with many of LA's best chefs, she presents uniquely inspired
dishes that are pleasing to the taste and the eye. The dining
room, with a well stocked private wine room, is modern, but elegant,
and the servers are helpful and attentive. The new changes throughout
this historic property are major, long overdue and delightful.
Treat yourself to a wonderful weekend away or just a tasty night
out.
