of dining experiences that I mentally compare with the countless memories of meals past, both locally and around the world. I continue to find flashes of perfection all over the place: the tom yum at Thai Avenue in Garden Grove, the sangrita at Solita

sandwiches in all ranging in price from $9-$12. The rest of the menu is rounded out with mains that include a lamb T-bone, a Tomahawk pork chop, and steak—all between $11-$17. The executive chef is Julio de Leon who cut his teeth at Solita in Huntington Beach
