L’Auberge Del Mar’s new Executive Chef Scott Thomas Dolbee describes the cuisine as playful, whimsical and modern. “Our goal was to present an interactive and memorable dining experience that showcases the highest quality products available, progressive cooking technique and innovative thinking.”
A proponent of slow food and utilizing fresh, local, sustainable products, Dolbee’s menu highlights San Diego’s diverse culinary landscape by showcasing regional products in sections- raw, artisan, cure, coastal, inland and sidekick. Inspiration for each dish not only came from the products available, but also from Dolbee’s culinary passions and nostalgia.
“For me, there are no rules in the kitchen, only endless possibilities,” says Dolbee. “Food should be very well thought out, with a reason for being put together. The objective simply is the ultimate interactive flavor experience driven by thoughts, ideas and feelings.”
Modern and comfortable, KITCHEN 1540 blends energy and intrigue with a fresh, simple atmosphere. While the menu is all new, diners will find that the restaurant’s philosophy of plentiful portions, contemporary-chic sophistication and a price point that does not exceed $32 for entrees remains the same.
