Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week: May 20 | Eater LA

"Under Brendan Collins’s oversight the Manhattan Beach Boa got a welcome menu refresh, and one of his missions was to spruce up the appetizers: the king crab ceviche features plump, sweet crab in a bright orange pool of passionfruit leche de tigre, studded with fresh grapefruit, radish slivers, and pea puree; the tangy starter transported me to the Caribbean or South America and even reminded me of a meal at Celele in Cartagena. Seeing that level of execution at a suburban steakhouse explains why operator IDG brought Collins on to elevate the offerings — the steaks are still solid, but now the starters are something to write home about." - Eater Staff
