T
he next six months will bring four vibrant restaurants to South Coast Plaza. Three are fresh, chef-driven concepts. TERRACE by Mix Mix from chef Ross Pangilinan offers creative, internationally inspired small plates, described on page 4. Early next year we will welcome Marugame Udon, an Orange County exclusive. If you like authentic udon, you will love the Marugame experience, captured on page 14. Our friends from Vaca, chef Amar Santana and business partner Ahmed Labbate, will debut The Hall Global Eatery in spring 2019. Imagine a culinary cornucopia ranging from European-style food stands to a spectacular full-service shellfish and charcuterie bar. The much anticipated restaurant joining the Penthouse collection next spring is Knife Pleat, from Michelin-starred chef Tony Esnault and wife-partner Yassmin Sarmadi. The couple, who own the highly acclaimed Spring and Church & State restaurants in downtown L.A., will bring their refined but approachable modern interpretation of French cuisine. New luxury stores continue to invigorate South Coast Plaza’s renowned reputation. Alexander McQueen and Givenchy (a Southern California exclusive) have recently opened, and Louis Vuitton has unveiled a spectacular 14,000-square-foot boutique from architect Peter Marino filled with curated art, merchandise exclusives and the only atelier in the United States where skilled LV artisans work. Other new brands include John Hardy, AllSaints, Lafayette 148 and Furla. In the performing and visual arts, Orange County Museum of Art is temporarily located at South Coast Plaza Village while construction of the new museum, scheduled to open in 2021 at Segerstrom Center for the Arts, is underway. It will be a robust January in theater with the O.C. premiere of Tony Award-winning Dear Evan Hansen and the West Coast premiere of American Ballet Theatre’s Harlequinade. So much to celebrate!

hef Ross Pangilinan is zen by nature. To see the awardwinning chef of the new TERRACE by Mix Mix at South Coast Plaza gently command his staff amid the chaos of sizzling pans and clanging spoons is to witness grace under pressure. His leadership style manifests itself onto his plates: elegant, complex dishes that are never showy yet stun again and again with bright, hearty flavors. And with Terrace, chef Ross has brought his talents to a more casual setting—but with no drop in ambition. The balance between high-end and approachable defines Pangilinan’s career. He learned under Joachim Splichal at the Patina Restaurant Group, hustling at the namesake mothership in Los Angeles before opening Leatherby’s Cafe Rouge at Segerstrom Center for the Arts in 2007. There, he cooked food for the symphony crowd, but chef Ross always snuck in glimpses of his full potential—a fantastic crudo here, an Asian-inspired steak there. He struck out solo in 2016 with the opening of Mix Mix Kitchen Bar in downtown Santa Ana. The restaurant saw food as Pangilinan did: through Filipino eyes, but with a love for the classics of the world. So his ethereal pork rinds came with a spicy vinegar, a classic foie gras became enlivened with puffed rice, and a great rib eye featured a foam derived from ube, a Filipino purple sweet potato customarily used for dessert. A couple of his Mix Mix favorites have made the trek to Terrace, like pork cheek adobo or albacore tostadas. But chef Ross also has a quick-service menu that includes small plates and flatbreads baked in a stone pizza oven—casual fare that will meld well with patio dining, which has nearly four times the seating of indoors. Pangilinan also brings his Filipino flourishes. The tuna carpaccio, fresh and colorful, is also sharp with a vinaigrette of calamansi, a Filipino orange beloved for its peppery aftertaste. Scallops get presented as a pinakbet, a northern Filipino dish of vegetables mixed with seafood. “I like the challenge of being back at South Coast Plaza,” chef Ross says. “Whether people get food on the go, or sit for a great lunch, dinner or weekend brunch, we will wow them.”

ONE POT MEALS by Chef Evan Kleiman
Left: arroz con pollo. Above: Thai-inspired coconut fish soup, spaghetti alla puttanesca
I
love to cook, maybe even more now when I’m doing it at home than when I was in my restaurant Angeli. But one thing I don’t love? Lots of dishes, now that I’m doing them myself. It took me a while to train myself down from the chef thing of using multiple pans and utensils every time I cooked at home. But now I view it as a challenge. How much flavor can I get into one pot? Quite a lot in fact. These three recipes are templates for how to produce a dinner when you’re at your limit of time and attention. The spaghetti alla puttanesca is made in the one pot method that was all the rage online a few years ago. I became a convert after making it the first time to essentially disprove its greatness. That joke was thankfully on me. I’ve used the method countless times since and every time it’s like magic. The arroz con pollo has its roots in a favorite dish at my childhood Mexican restaurant, now sadly gone. It’s endlessly changeable. Add shrimp, delete olives, add spice—it’s all up to you. The rice, rich from broth and piquant flavors, never ceases to comfort. Add salad with a zippy dressing, like a garlicky Caesar or anchovymustard vinaigrette, and you have dinner. And the
leftovers are great for breakfast with a fried egg on top. Then there’s the Thai-inspired coconut seafood soup. We’re often reminded that we need to get more fish into our diet and this is an easy way to do it. When you use an Instant Pot, the moment it’s all done, you lift the lid and the rich aroma of lemongrass, ginger and coconut hit you. Fish, born in water, is already tender and needs little cooking. In this recipe you’re cooking the aromatics and vegetables in the broth first then letting the seafood swim briefly in the hot soup until done. It’s the dish with the biggest hit of flavor for the least amount of time. Oh, and make the other eaters do the dishes.

TOOLS OF THE TRADE:
ESSENTIALS FOR THE HOME BAR by Paul Hodgins
W
e’ve all been dazzled by the mixologist’s magic: gleaming shakers, spherical ice cubes as big as billiard balls, citrus peels that hang from the glass with a serpentine twirl. While it takes years to master the craft, you can easily get tools of the bartender’s trade at well-stocked home stores. Michael Patrick Rooney, beverage director at chef Amar Santana’s Broadway, Vaca and soon-to-open The Hall Global Eatery at South Coast Plaza, explains what you need and why. First off, don’t think you can get away without a muddler for crushing herbs and aromatics. But easy does it. “Just gently press it to release the oils,” Rooney said. “It doesn’t take a lot of pressure.” Strainers are important to separate ice from the drink after it’s mixed. But be fussy. When using a Hawthorne strainer, the Slinky-like spring keeps larger chunks of ice from plopping into the glass, however the smaller bits of ice can slip through. “I always use it together with a small conical mesh strainer,” Rooney advises. Respect the difference between shaken and stirred cocktails, so you need both a mixing glass and a shaker. “The general rule is if a cocktail contains citrus, dairy or egg white, you shake it. Without those items, we stir.” Keep your inventory of glasses simple. Burgundy and Bordeaux stems accommodate most red and white wines nicely. Champagne is best in flutes, the taller the better to extend the life of the bubbles. Rooney recommends a
coupe—a stemmed glass featuring a broad, shallow bowl— over a martini glass. “Martini glasses don’t travel well. You can’t walk without spilling them, and garnishes don’t sit easily on the rim.” Ice has gone upscale and you can create some of the fancier shapes at home now. Pick up the Tovolo brand ice molds for spherical ice and large two-inch-square cubes. Just remember to use filtered water, not what comes out of the tap. A good ice bucket is a necessity in Southern California, but Rooney shies away from the more common types. “I like stone buckets. They don’t sweat, they retain the cold extremely well, and they’re beautiful.” For larger, multi-bottle holders, he prefers Z Gallerie’s metal buckets. Last but not least, get a good bartender’s bible. The Bar Book by Jeffrey Morgenthaler and Home Bar Basics (and Not-So-Basics) by Dave Stolte are recommended.

Get into the Thick of Udon at
MARUGAME by Eddie Lin
F
asten your seat belt because an eating experience at Marugame Udon is unlike any you’ve had. Opening at South Coast Plaza early next year, the dining destination is based around the popular Japanese wheat flour noodle called udon. These bold, girthy, slippery noodles with a pearly white gloss are the main attraction, and fans around the world queue up eagerly for Marugame’s made-to-order bowls. More than a restaurant, Marugame also doubles as an udon factory, steadily rolling out and hand-cutting plump, springy noodles. The versatility of udon makes them suitable for dipping into traditional kake sauce (dashi, mirin, soy) as well as slurping straight out of a savory tonkotsu (pork) broth. Whichever way you decide to devour udon, it makes for lively noodling. Marugame originates from its namesake city in the Kagawa Prefecture of Japan, where udon is revered. The company’s reputation for crafting Sanuki-style udon, freshly fried tempura and musubi is well-known by foodies. Guests enjoy Marugame’s signature bowls like the Nikutama with sweet, tender beef slices and onsen tamago (soft boiled egg), or curry style, tickling taste buds with its distinct savory sweetness, while some purists prefer the fresh noodles themselves with only a basic
14 southcoastplaza.com
broth called kake-dashi simmered from kombu (Japanese kelp), bonito and aromatic soy sauce. Ready to eat? Like many udon shops in Japan, this operation is run cafeteria-style: get in line, grab a tray, slide to the long order counter and ask for your bowl of choice. There are about 15 variations of udon from which to pick. Every slick strand is crafted with carefully selected wheat flour. When an order is placed, a coil of udon is quickly immersed in hot water for cooking. Continue down the line and peruse the tempting tempura on display, everything from kakiage (a tumbleweed of various veggies), to plump shrimp and sweet potato. Grab a rice treat called musubi, each wrapped with nori and flavored with ingredients like salmon, pollock roe or crab meat. As soon as an udon bowl is ready, the cook places it on the guest’s tray. Now it’s time to garnish. Freshly chopped green onion, cilantro, grated ginger and sinus-clearing wasabi along with puffy tempura flakes are offered at the complimentary condiment bar. The umami-rich tentsuyu sauce for dipping tempura as well as other sauces are also available. Now that your Marugame Udon bowl is custom garnished, what are you waiting for? Start slurping.

OCMA UNVEILS PLANS FOR NEW MUSEUM AT SEGERSTROM CENTER FOR THE ARTS
T
he Orange County Museum of Art has unveiled designs for its new three-story, 52,000-square-foot home that will be located next to the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall at Segerstrom Center for the Arts. The Segerstrom family deeded the land to OCMA in 2008. Architect Thom Mayne and his Los Angeles-based firm, Morphosis, have designed a modern building with 25,000 square feet of exhibition space, more than doubling the capacity of the former location. A spacious roof terrace and outdoor space will be key to the museum’s identity. Groundbreaking of the new museum will take place early next year with the opening planned for 2021. In the interim, OCMA will present exhibitions and public programs in a unique, temporary space at South Coast Plaza Village. OCMA.net
