Here’s a taste of what’s on tap today at the Beard House.
The Maude Experience, 7:00 P.M.
Curtis Stone, Maude, Beverly Hills, CA; and Gwen, Los Angeles
Curtis Stone played host on Top Chef Masters, but this Aussie import is also the mastermind behind the chic Maude, where monthly rotating menus highlight a single star ingredient. Tonight Stone will bring his bottomless creativity and deft touch to the Beard House for a dinner exalting the summer plum, featuring plates like Plum Gazpacho with Late-Summer Herbs and Flowers; Grilled Prawns with Yellow Plums, Sweet Corn, Okra, and Nasturtium; and Roasted Pheasant with Plum Wine Sauce, Lily Bulbs, Amaranth, and Plum Wood–Smoked Prune and Pheasant Gyoza in Consommé.
