LA French Dining 🌟|🇫🇷 Citrin 🍽️
After days of Chinese food, we headed to this 1-Michelin-starred French spot near Santa Monica after riding the sunset carousel—and what a lovely surprise! The Tasting Menu had five courses (including dessert), leaving us satisfied but not overly full—just right. First Course ✨ Egg Caviar 🥚 — Caviar over soft eggs with cauliflower purée and lemon cream. Light, fresh, not too rich. ✨ Scallop — Also recommended! Fresh, tender, served with a special sauce. Second Course ✨ Lobster Bolognese 🦞 — A must-order! Pasta topped with truffle foam—savory and fragrant. Third Course ✨ Marcho Farms Veal 🥩 — Steak was good, though not mind-blowing. We were already pretty full by then. Dessert ✨ Red Berry “Vacherin” 🍓 — Raspberry white chocolate mousse with ice cream. ✨ Dark Chocolate “Mille Crepe” 🍫 — Chocolate cake layered with ice cream. A beautifully paced, elegant meal—perfect after a Santa Monica evening. #FrenchCuisine #PrettyPlates #VibeDining #LAEats#MichelinLA #SantaMonicaEats #TastingMenu #MustTryLA
