The Bungalow in Corona del Mar will continue the holiday tradition of the beloved Ritz Restaurant that closed earlier this year, by offering a special Ritz lunch menu starting Dec. 1 through Dec. 24.
The Register reported The Ritz will reopen sometime in 2015 at the former Chart House location in Newport Beach. Until then, you can enjoy the Bungalow’s Ritz lunch.
Specialty items include The Ritz Egg, filled with chived smoked salmon scramble and topped with caviar and complimented with a shot of ice-cold Stolichnaya Vodka, Fresh Florida Stone Crabs, two stone crab claws served with a dijon mustard sauce, Milan Osso Buco, a hindshank of veal oven-braised and served with fettuccine pasta and veal au jus, Peppered Grenadines of Filet Mignon, a medallion of pan-seared, pepper-crusted filet mignon topped with Diane sauce and Traditional Roast Goose with Lingonberry Sauce, served with celery root mashed potatoes, warm gala apple compote and sweet and sour red cabbage.
“Like many Newport Beach locals, we were big fans and frequent guests of The Ritz, and its traditional holiday lunch menu will be missed by many this year, “ said Bungalow co-owners Jim Walker and Louie Feinstein. “We decided to honor The Ritz this year by offering this special menu during the holiday season to continue the tradition we all looked forward to and enjoyed for 35 years.”
The Bungalow’s regular lunch menu will also be available from 11 a..m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
