Taste of the South Bay – Kings Care Foundation

Please join Paul Martin’s American Bistro at the  4th annual “Taste of the South Bay” presented by Hush Hush and the Los Angeles Kings. All proceeds will benefit the Kings Care Foundation. This is an opportunity for LA Kings players, celebrities and guests to sample the food from the top restaurants in the South Bay.

The excitement is Sunday, February 19th, from 6:00-9:00pm, at the Shade Hotel (1221 N. Valley Drive, Manhattan Beach). Click here for tickets. With auction items, casino gaming, raffle opportunities- this just may be the event of the season!

All proceeds from Taste of the South Bay will benefit the Kings Care Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing educational and recreational opportunities for youth throughout the greater Los Angeles area.  Since its inception in 1996 the Kings Care Foundation has donated over $5 million to the local community.  In August 2009, the Kings Care Foundation proudly announced a $500,000 commitment to the Blood Donor Center at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.  The largest donation ever made by the Foundation serves to increase the much needed collection of life-saving blood for the most seriously ill and injured children at CHLA through the LA Kings Bloodmobile.

Paul Martin’s® El Segundo restaurant will be dishing up our mouth-watering, fall-off-the-bone short ribs, with homemade mashed potatoes, au jus and horseradish cream.  Buy your tickets, meet some of your LA Kings, and try our ribs, all the while supporting a tremendous cause! See you Saturday – 6:00pm – the Shade Hotel – don’t miss it!

Paul Martin’s® American Grill in the Laguna Journal

The Laguna Journal’s restaurant editor, Glori Fickling, dined with us last week at our newest restaurant Paul Martin’s® American Grill. Please read her expert epicurean review on Paul Martin’s® new Irvine location.

Paul Martin’s® American Grill sets an enticing pace for what’s ahead at this newest dining delight in multi-faceted Irvine Spectrum. Grandiose is the scope of this attractive restaurant which sports an elongated bar, massive wine display unit,  cushy dining areas, twin patios and an intimate hideaway for romantic interludes.  Enticing depicts the affordably priced menu referring to seasonally updated offerings of farm fresh cuisine encompassing organic produce, mesquite grilled meats and seafood, delectable house made desserts and breads. Add to these taste sensations, sincere hospitality from dedicated servers hip to many facets of a fine dining experience, obviously predicated upon Paul Martin’s initial victory in Roseville, California five years ago, followed by a second success less than three years later…” For more from Glori’s “Paul Martin’s American Grill New Irvine Triple Threat” please read on!

Do You Know Where Your Produce Comes From?

One of our purveyors, Sun Grown Organics, brings up a great point. “People don’t know where their produce comes from anymore. Mass-produced this and processed-that. What happened to real food grown by real people?” In business for over 20 years in San Diego, Sun Grown cultivates microgreens, microherbs, sprouts, micro mixes, specialty greens and shoots, and edible blossoms.

Paul Martin’s® works with a variety of produce growers and suppliers to always put the freshest, most vibrant greens on our plates. Earthbound Farm has been organic since their beginning in 1984, and in 1986 was actually the first to successfully produce the pre-washed, packaged lettuces that we all purchase in the supermarket today. Their certified organic California greens are still produced with the guidance of the original founders and the same commitment to quality.

At Paul Martin’s® American Bistro and Paul Martin’s® American Grill, we appreciate the expertise and dedication of our purveyors, and know our guests will as well!

At our Irvine restaurant we have baby beets sprouting up in a new feature salad with some amazing goat cheese and almonds. It will be delighting taste palettes in the OC this week!
