| Located in the heart of the OC, in Newport Beach, you’ll find fine dining on the water at Blanca. Blanca opened in May 2008 as part of the MOR Project. The food is Mediterranean, and the staff is very accommodating (ask for Brandon). Be sure to make a reservation as this tiny gem only holds 40. Known for their “crudo”, let Chef Nick Weber tantalize your taste buds with big eye tuna with grapefruit gelee and coriander olive oil, albacore with gazpacho viniagrette and espelette, or Japanese Sea Bass on a block on Himalayan salt–yep–you read me right! For the entree, try the Muscovy Duck or the 14oz New York Steak. Both are cooked via “sous vide” style (or cryovac cooking). Wash it all down with a nice bottle of Marques de Riscal Rioja, 2000. For dessert try the olive oil cake with Moscato wine ice cream. Yum! Located at: 3420 Via Oporto, Newport Beach, 949.673.0414.
