For our 252nd meeting the group enjoyed a memorable evening perched on the 71st floor of the US Bank Tower. 71 Above provides a distinctive view of Los Angeles - a panorama that extends from the San Gabriel Mountains to the beaches of Malibu. It's not just a restaurant, it's a destination that promises a sensory journey like no other.
The evening commenced with a champagne reception in the Sky Lounge, a perfect spot to enjoy Los Angeles' breathtaking sunset views. Following the reception, we embarked on a culinary adventure above the twinkling city lights, meticulously curated by esteemed Executive Chef, Javier Lopez.
Chef Javier designed an exquisite five-course menu, combining global influences with locally sourced ingredients. The dining experience was elevated by wines, specially selected by Dave Felton, showcasing 2013 Domaine Bruno Colin Puligny-Montrachet, 1er cru, La Truffiere and a wonderful 2000 Chateau Montrose St. Estephe.
