Like that other restaurant, Trevese has whipped the old victorian-style mansion into an environmentally-friendly frenzy. I don’t know exactly what it means but The Wave can explain it better here. Something about ethics. Whatever. I’d been trying for over a year to find an excuse to get some interior photos of this fancy restaurant and […]

The newest Wine Bar/Lounge/Restaurant in Los Gatos is also “Green” from head to toe by latest ecological standards. Check out The Wave article that says so. The interior really is amazing and I hope I did it justice in my photos. I incorporated my own finely-tuned High Dynamic Range photography workflow that I use for […]

Why would anyone need a ten-thousand-dollar machine dedicated simply to kneading dough into varying strips and extrusions? Well apparently it makes the chef’s job way easier. And if you’re the Four Seasons, nothing is too good for Chef Alessandro. He’s a soft-spoken guy, but I’ve never seen him so excited as when he’s wielding the […]

I worked with Andy at Menara Moroccan in San Jose to get some updated menu photos for their website. We already did the interiors so it was time for food. It was a pretty quick shoot but we got the job done. The unique tables add a nice warm texture to the images without detracting […]

Finally got a chance to get some food shots at Pampas – the meat is amazing and although the plated dishes aren’t the main feature they’re nothing to scoff at. Chef John Karbowski knows his stuff! It was a pleasure as always to work with the team there. More pics here.

Junnoon offers a delicious Saturday brunch featuring these folded creations called “dosas” which are a refreshing departure from, say, omelets. Pair your favorite dosa with one of Angeline’s cocktail creations and enjoy watching the foot traffic on University Avenue from Junnoon’s patio.

This is truly a unique dessert – variations of candied apples with some fruit and cheese. I’ve seen a lot of the stuff nice restaurants put out there, and so much of it is really getting tiresome. I mean, yes, I’ve had chocolate lava explosion or whatever you choose to call it. “Oh? You say […]

Here’s a few updated interiors of Sent Sovi in Saratoga. I think this “candid headshot” of Josiah is an interesting accident.
