THE CELLAR HONORS ELIZABETH TAYLOR
03.25.11
By Sheryll Alexander
We love The Cellar in Fullerton and we also love how it was legendary screen star Elizabeth Taylor’s favorite OC dining destination. Yes, Richard Burton really did propose (for the second time!) to the stunning Liz Taylor at this truly distinctive dining destination.
In fact, you can reserve the “Elizabeth Taylor Table,” which is actually a small booth tucked off the main dining room in a quiet grotto with romantic pull-for-privacy drapes.
So, in honor of her memory, The Cellar is offering a four-course prix fixe dinner inspired by Liz’s favorite foods. Held from Apr. 1-3, this intoxicating dinner costs just $50 per person and benefits Ms. Taylor’s favorite charity: American Foundation for AIDS Research (AmFAR).
The Cellar’s proprietor Ryan Dudley called on a former longtime maitre d’ to develop the menu according to Madame Taylor’s fave foods. Here’s the menu:
First Course: Escargot with shallots, white wine, mushrooms, butter and pastis
Second Course: Caesar salad with gourmet anchovies and herbed croutons
Third Course: Filet steak Oscar with hollandaise resting on potato purée and fresh asparagus
Fourth Course: Chocolate mousse with fresh berries
Space is limited and reservations are highly recommended.
