Nationally respected chef of New American cuisine creates dishes as fashionable as the ambience.

In Short
Modernist decor features concrete, plate-glass and curving white curtains--a hipper twist on most Riverwalk eateries. Chef Bruce Auden's menu involves bold combinations in familiar dishes, such as smoked pork chop with quick-cooked vegetables and a dollop of curried sauce. Seared tuna, caramelized pineapple and chili broth are topped with foie gras. English toffee pudding swims in a pool of thin custard for an indulgent ending.
