The Kitchen @ MCASD, La Jolla
The Kitchen @ MCASD is worth a visit, even if you aren't going to the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. The menu is really fun with a range of coffees, teas, turmeric lattes, hot chocolate and house-made sparking drinks. The food offerings are also creative with dishes like sumac chicken flatbread (sumac is a tangy Turkish spice); fall squash; a lamb burger and more. They are open for breakfast, before the Museum opens!
I had a yuzu soda and a chicken skewer with toum. Toum is a Lebanese garlic sauce. Sometimes, toum can be too intense, but this was perfect. The skewer was atop a bed of couscous and the accompanying slices of pickled onion and oranges gave great acidic notes.
I sat outside and watched La Jolla bustle by.
The MCASD is a San Diego gem. The remodeled museum takes full advantage of its spectacular view of the ocean. The permanent collection is nice! I like that they are increasing their collection of Southern California artists, especially the Light and Space movement. It makes the experience unique.
