Speaking of tasting menus, any recommendations for a good tasting menu paired with wine that isn't Rouge or Muse? We've been there, done that at both places and are looking for something different for a change.
I worked at Muse for three years and left about 6 months before the transfer of ownership. In actuality it's the owner of Escoba that assumed ownership.

His name is Fergus, he's an amazing sommelier. Sadly, I've heard he's since moved on to Rush.

As for tasting menu recommendations, I know that the old chef from Muse, Xavier Lacaze (who was on Top Chef last year) is at Home Tasting Room now. He does a killer tasting menu.
