Los Angeles is the land of picky eaters. We’ve seen orders placed that would put Meg Ryan’s salad in When Harry Met Sally to shame. Thanks to the Sunset Marquis’ roster of famous guests, Chef Guillaume Burlion is used to dealing with…complicated demands. In fact, with typical French bravura (yeah, we’re picturing a Musketeer twirling his mustachio before slapping us with a white glove), he challenges guests to put his skills to the test and will prepare up to a 15-course tasting menu for any dietary preference or need. Why bother with special requests, though, when his ever-changing menu of seasonal delights includes dishes like lobster and scallop carpaccio with sea urchin ocean salad; a Napoleon of braised oxtail with raclette whipped potato; duck breast marinated in green tea with caramelized potatoes and a plum reduction; Kurobutta pork flat iron steak served with caramelized Fiji apples, huckleberries and whipped potato in a smoky sage infusion; and winning the award for the most exotic dish: a rack of antelope with seared foie gras and wild mushroom in black truffle sauce…get the sauce on the side if you must.
