“MRS. DOUBTFIRE”

From film to stage, this musical adaptation of a family favorite features a blend of comedy and heartfelt moments. The show is directed by four-time Tony Award-winner Jerry Zaks and features a dynamic soundtrack. The story follows an out-of-work actor as he navigates a separation from his wife and the wild scheme he pulls to see his children. Plus, more things to do in O.C. this week!

Sungold Tomato at Knife Pleat

We were presented with a trio of amuse bouches—a Champagne soy milk crema with cashew and apricot chutney; a tartelette of chanterelle and porcini mushrooms with truffle; and panisse served with romesco. They served as wonderful preludes to the courses that followed. For me, that meant a dish dubbed Sungold Tomato, which pairs jackfruit and gooseberries with a delightful tomato gelée, carefully arranged in a ring around a generous dollop of creamy cashew emulsion (without the cream).
