Chef Nick is also offering his Valentine’s weekend Dinner menu ($125 per guest) on both Friday and Saturday nights. His tasting menu is five elevated courses with unexpected flourishes and an optional wine pairing.

“Terrace by Mix Mix showcases internationally inspired cuisine by Chef Ross Pangilinan, featuring small plates influenced by French, Italian and modern Filipino flavors. Lunch, dinner and weekend brunch are served on a covered terrace, lush with palms and hanging plants.”

“Populaire Modern Bistro is a culinary venture from longtime OC chefs Ross Pangilinan and Nicholas Weber, both Patina Restaurant Group alums and protégés of renowned restaurateur Joachim Splichal. The modern Cal-French bistro serves classic French staples with California flavors and twists, from Escargot Aebleskiver with Koji Butter & Green Garlic Aioli and Bouillabaisse Chawanmushi with Mussels, Octopus, Sea Urchin and Saffron Dashi – to Prime Bavette Steak with Sauce Au Poivre.”

Ross Pangilinan previews both very special menus with romance in the air.
