Culinary diary & history rendezvous with gastromic adventures
"Lilian’s at the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe is a romantic, plant-framed setting for a special night — its sleek dining room, drenched in verdant green design details, is almost worth the trip alone. Starters like warm crab and avocado salad or the Rancho Cobb commingle with less expected dishes like Peking duck tostadas, which come with gochujang, pickled cucumbers, sliced carrot, and Tokyo negi (a variety of green onion). More traditional romantics might go for something like the caviar plate with blini and all the fixings; mains like king salmon and marinara-topped veal Milanese are even more formidable." - Helen I.

Dinner seatings are available from 5 to 9 p.m., and the experience is priced at $185 per person." - Helen I. Hwang
