We look forward to welcoming you.
At The Restaurant at Meadowood, we consider ourselves part of the rich evolution of California Cuisine, which has always been based on the use of fresh, local products prepared simply to preserve and showcase the ingredients' natural flavors. This reverence toward locality and sustainability continues within our cuisine though we apply a slightly more modern approach in which the technique only serves to enhance the inherent character of the ingredients.
The pantry's a little bigger today in terms of the use of emulsifiers, gelling agents, stabilizers and the like. From an ingredient standpoint, farmers today are providing us with greater varieties of fruits, vegetables and herbs and ranchers are continuously expanding the varieties of organic meat. There's never been a time in history when these resources have been more diverse or bountiful, particularly in California.
Simultaneously, today's guests are often looking for slightly more nuanced and innovative textural juxtapositions and flavor profiles. This is what we strive to offer in The Restaurant at Meadowood.
For example, in one of our menu items, we'll start with potatoes from the Meadowood garden and present them in five different ways without over-manipulation thereby highlighting all the possible textures and flavors inherent in an otherwise humble product. In the end, we're able to make the potato more of a potato than it is in its natural state, thereby continuing the California Cuisine tradition of respecting the work of the local farmers and ranchers and the beauty of the ingredients they provide. The collaboration of nature, the farmer and the chef are the ultimate triumvirate.
