    Guests circulate through heated patio and intimate counter to watch Chef Eric Bost work with kinmedai, wagyu, and abalone in a sequence that builds from savory precision to a striking orgeat ice cream crowned with celery root and caviar. The meal unfolds as theater—composed, ambitious, and engineered to surprise.
