CALIFORNIA CUISINE | INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS | L.A. ATTITUDE
Chef Kim Vu blends technique with a host’s intuition, layering char, sauce, and acid until the flavors lock in. Precision without pretense. For locals, crews, and celebration seekers, not velvet ropes.
Backyard Garden Party

Backyard Garden Party × Night Market Energy
A fun-casual brasserie built for the patio, where the grill leads the room and the service wears sneakers, anchored by our coal-fired ribeye cap finished with miso demi, green peppercorn jus, and a marrow-butter add-on you won’t forget, and paired with the Garden Glow Martini, clarified yuzu, butterfly pea gin, cucumber ice, and a citrus-sparkle rim, with an equally photogenic Free Spirit twin.
Big Host Energy, On Call

You should’ve been there. Seriously.
A Seat for Her Dinner at Sorry Not Sorry LA wasn’t just a dinner, it was a moment. The kind people talk about after. The kind you wish you didn’t miss.
With the incredible presence of Kara Wang and the beautifully crafted wines from Amryn Winemakers, the night unfolded exactly how it should: effortless, elevated, unforgettable.
Guests didn’t just eat — they experienced every bite.
We kicked things off with bold, fresh flavors:
• Hearts of Palm Ceviche — bright, citrusy, layered with texture
• Avocado Chimichurri Bruschetta — herbaceous, creamy, addictive
• Herb Dijon Chicken Skewer — perfectly grilled, served with a rich dipping sauce
• Kim Chi Quesadilla — crispy, spicy, unapologetically good
Then we moved into the kind of dishes that slow things down (in the best way):
• Citrus Avocado Salad — fresh, vibrant, clean
• Miso Glazed Salmon — delicate, savory, perfectly balanced
• Fruit & Cheeses — curated, elevated, no shortcuts
• Vegan Warm Chocolate Brownie Sundae — because ending strong is non-negotiable
And then… the final champagne toast 🥂
Because every unforgettable night deserves a proper ending.
Laughter. Connection. Flavor. Energy.
That’s what filled the room.
And here’s the truth:
events like this don’t happen by accident.
They’re designed. Curated. Built with intention, from the menu to the last sip.
Missed this one?
Don’t make the same mistake twice.

LIVE with @therealkarawang - Wine Dinner
Two pours. Two energies. One night you’ll talk about for a long time. 🍷✨
This Sunday, March 22, *A Seat For Her Dinner* isn’t just a reservation, it’s a story unfolding in your glass.
We begin light, bright, and alive with **Amryn Sauvignon Blanc** crisp, elegant, effortlessly vibrant. Poured during the 4PM reception alongside curated bites. The kind of first sip that says: *you made the right move coming here.*
Then… the mood shifts.
At 5PM, we go deeper with **Amryn Pinot Noir** , richer, silkier, layered with intention. Paired with a 4-course family-style dinner designed to slow time down. This is where the magic lives: in the pauses, the laughter, the eye contact over a glass half full.
All of it guided by **Kara Wang**, founder of Amryn Winery, alongside **Chef Kim Vu** two forces shaping flavor, emotion, and experience into one seamless night.
⚠️ Early Bird tickets: $69 (until TODAY - LAST CALL)
After that, the price rises — the experience only gets richer.
