Thank you for the above post Erich (TWT). Coco D' Amour is indeed awesome. I tried it for lunch days earlier and dinner on Saturday night also where we met Erich and his lovely wife, Carmen for the first time. We had a short 2 minute drive but they came from Marina Del Rey. Real nice people.The tiki community is great! The bartender is new but still made me a great Mai Tai. There are so many great menu choices and it will take a while to try them all. We were greated by the owners and the chef personally delivered our meal. I had the Macadamia Mahi Mahi and my husband ordered Island Scampi Flambe, Chef Gerard assured me that even the orchid garnishes are edible so I had to try. A little crunchy and kinda weird to eat but a great new experience. I too loved the veggies. Our dessert could feed four! Try to floating Island. A souffle on a bed of caramel cream and drenched in a seductive caramel glaze and topped with optional Amaretto. Yum. I'm stopping in tomorrow for lunch and also loan them my Jeff Berry drink books. Currently there is no cocktail menu. Owners welcome suggestions and appreciate comments. |
