'To be a great cook you have to respect the ingredients, where they come from, how they were Back to "Supplements" index grown (sustainability is very important) and the care it took to bring them to your kitchen.' Having worked for some of the biggest names in the Western culinary world along the way - Alice Waters at Chez Panisse, Alain Passard at Arpege, Todd English at Olives, Mark Peel and Nancy Silverton at Campanile - Goin developed a naturalistic style of presenting her dishes, allowing the beauty of the ingredient to speak for itself. 'I am inspired by the flavours of the Mediterranean - France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, North Africa, Greece and so on - bold, earthy, robust,' she says. 'I strive to make my food sensuous, deeply and intensely flavorful. I love to play with traditional combinations and flavours and make new interpretations.' Both her restaurants cater to a sophisticated urban clientele, but Lucques (named for an obscure French olive) is more formal while A.O.C. (named for Appellation d'Origine Controlee, the French system for controlling the geographical denomination of wine) has more of a bustling contemporary feel. Like their chef, there are no airs about these places - only plenty of good food. With L.A. being in close proximity to Hollywood, there is also the inevitable celebrity connection. Lucques is even set in an old carriage house which once belonged to silent movie star Harold Lloyd. Here, the menu is a simple single page that features six appetisers and nine main courses that change with the local produce and seasons about every two months. Goin describes A.O.C. as a full restaurant with the heart and soul of a wine bar. 'We feature 50 wines by the glass and 25 cheeses to choose from, and there is also a section of house- made charcuterie - pork rilletes, foie gras, chicken liver with pancetta, sweetbread terrines and so on,' she says, adding that the influences are more Spanish and Portuguese. The menu concept at A.O.C. is deceptively simple and divided into salads, fish, meat, vegetables and her favourite, 'from the wood-burning oven'. 'There are no traditional appetisers and main courses here,' says Goin. 'The idea is for people to share and interact with each other and with the food. It is a really fun, charged environment, and a great and different way for me to get to experiment with new flavours.' Diners at the WGS can expect a representative sampling of some popular dishes from both of Goin's restaurants. For instance, suckling pig - confit-style and served with crispy skin over braised leeks with romesco sauce and quince paste - is loved by the regulars at Lucques and will be available at One- Ninety for dinner. Another house favourite is braised beef shortribs with fingerling potatoes, haricots verts and tapenade - a dish that will be featured during a masterchef safari (where diners eat six courses at three different locations). Goin adds: 'Our hazelnut brown butter cake with caramel ice cream and fleur de set isn't just a hit with the customers - I actually had our pastry chef make a giant one for my wedding cake!' It is patently obvious that Goin is not the type of chef who is easily swayed by trends in cuisines around the world. 'I am interested to see what other chefs are doing but I am not the first person to jump on the bandwagon just because something is 'trendy',' she says. 'I think it is more important to follow your heart and the type of food that speaks to you instead of trying to give people what you think they want.' Suzanne Goin will be cooking at the Four Seasons Hotel from April 25 to April 30. Her food will also be featured during the Masterchef Safari dinner series on April 27 and 28 ($300 per person). Goin will conduct a culinary masterclass on April 26 from 9am to 10.30am ($90 per person) at the Singapore Tourism Court Auditorium.

  • Alum Gail Silverton Operates Gelato Shop in Studio City
    Silverton family honors a legacy of Food and Community Page 1 of 5 Categories: COVER STORY Date: Jun 19, 2008 Title: Silverton family honors a legacy of Food and Community BY PAULINE ADAMEK Silverton family honors a legacy of Food and Community The Silverton family legacy connects food and community (R-L: Gail Silverton, Andreas Krankl, Larry Silverton,Nancy Silverton, Joel Gutman). www.robertevans.com Silverton family honors a legacy of Food and Community BY PAULINE ADAMEK The story of the Silverton family is a fascinating tale of how many successful businesses have been developed and nurtured, creating a legacy that entwines food with community. Importantly, these enterprises are driven more by heart than by fiscal reward, and reap greater successes than anyone had anticipated. This tale starts with a benevolent patriarch, Lawrence S. Silverton. A construction lawsuit-attorney, savvy businessman, real estate tycoon and coffee, calligraphy and motorcycle enthusiast, Larry used his business acumen and support to enable his two daughters, Nancy and Gail, to make an indelible mark on the Los Angeles landscape and beyond. Now he’s assisting his six grandchildren in their studies and burgeoning business enterprises. Larry Silverton’s Story: Born in South Dakota, Larry moved to Sherman Oaks and started a family with his wife, Doris. When most mothers in the 1950s were taking advantage of labor-saving technologies, Doris, a journalist and writer, taught her daughters the goodness of lentils, goat’s cheese and a beautifully set table. This gave the Silverton sisters an appreciation of the heart and hearth of family and a desire, later, to create a product and environment that could contribute to the community.
