OC Restaurant Spotlight: Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge
Small businesses are being hit the hardest during this time, and it is more important than ever to step up and do what we can to help small businesses. A simple way to do this is by ordering food-to-go for your family. Instead of picking out a large restaurant chain, I recommend supporting a small business. Every day we will be featuring one of our favorite small businesses to support with Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge being our feature of the day.
The one thing that I love about Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge is the chef and owner. It is one of the few restaurants in Orange County with a female chef and her food – incredible. The restaurant was only open for a couple of weeks before the coronavirus hit, and they need the support from our community more than ever to help get through this.
Currently, they are offering one of the best family to-go meals. The liquid gold is my favorite menu items. Plus, it is affordable, being priced at $45 for 4-5 people.
Liquid Gold Family Meal
The dish features: pork and lamb, pappardelle, shaved parmesan, and served with sourdough bread. I recommend pairing the meal with the Scarlet Farm Family Salad for an additional $25. The salad features red leaf lettuce, radicchio, tomato, basil, kalmata olives, pepperonchini, soppressata, feta cheese, creamy italian dressing.
The only thing missing is their unforgettable clam chowder. Fingers crossed that it gets added to their to-go menu soon!!
Dinner can be ordered online at ScarletKL.com or by calling 949-503-3086. Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge is located at 30865 Gateway Pl, Ladera Ranch, CA 92694.
