LA Michelin – Pasjoli in Santa Monica 洛杉磯法餐米其林

My favorite French restaurant in Santa Monica with an elegant storefront. Chef Dave Beran carefully selects local ingredients from Southern California. Presents classic French cuisine with unique dishes.

Santa Monica最愛的一家法式餐酒館，店面不大卻精緻典雅，點餐時我就照著 Bartender推薦的點，前餐和主餐口味都非常喜歡，主廚 Dave Beran嚴選當地南加州的農產，以巴黎市場的經典法式美食呈現，客人們於餐廳中可品嚐到的是獨特風格的法式小酒館創意料理。

Interior Design 裝潢

我自己坐在吧台，店面的擺設帶種家的舒適，酒櫃後方保留原始的紅磚牆，少了高檔餐廳的拘束感，多了幾分人情味

I sat at the bar by myself, and the decor of the restaurant was like a cozy home feeling.

Cuisine 餐點

因為三點左右才吃完甜點，還不是很餓，就請 Bartender推薦簡單但她最愛的幾道餐點，小杯調酒，配上前菜加半份主菜，份量抓的很剛好！

Crabe et chou-fleur

這道餐點將紫色的小花朵與香料葉妝點，看起來非常小巧精緻，螃蟹殼裝的內餡是螃蟹泥與佐料

This dish is garnished with small purple flowers and aromatic leaves. Filling inside the crab shell is a mixture of crab meat and seasonings.

Foie de poulet à la strasbourgeious

吐司的中間填充雞肝醬，與海鮮風味的佐料，後方那小杯裝的為莓汁松露醬
The toast is filled with chicken liver pâté and a seafood-flavored sauce, and behind it is a small cup of berry truffle sauce.

結帳時的小驚喜，用食譜夾著帳單，欣賞這點小創意

目錄後的第一頁，印的是法國廚師 Jacques Pépin 的大名，他活躍於 1980年代晚期的美國美食電視節目與紐約時代雜誌，感謝見識多廣的朋友特別強調，方才深入了解這號大人物

The author is a famous French chef Jacques Pépin, who was active in late 1980s American culinary TV shows and the New York Times Magazine.

餐廳位於海岸不遠處，當天訂了六點左右的位子，吃完晚飯與同樣坐在酒吧的夫妻小聊一會，離去餐廳時剛好傍晚，漫步至沙岸邊吹著海風，眼前隨風搖曳的橄欖樹與被夕陽渲染成柳橙色的天際，是 Santa Monica標誌性的風景

The restaurant was located not far from the coast. After finishing my dinner, I took a leisurely stroll to the beach, feeling the sea breeze. The swaying olive trees and the orange-hued sky, painted by the sunset, created the iconic scenery of Santa Monica.

Pasjoli是一間走過路過 Santa Monica絕對不能錯過的法式小餐館，不管是到店裡喝小酒，點幾道小菜品嚐創意的法式家鄉風味，或者傳統的正餐都是不錯的選擇！

Pasjoli is a French restaurant in Santa Monica that you definitely shouldn’t miss. Whether you stop in for a drink and some small plates or dining for a formal meal, it’s a great choice!
