Today marks the fifteenth birthday of Raphael Lunetta’s Jiraffe in Santa Monica, still an innovative dining option even years after you ate your first purple Peruvian potato. To celebrate, Lunetta is offering a special three-course menu of Jiraffe classics through June 22nd for $42, from Wednesday to Saturday. Tonight, the restaurant offers a three-course birthday menu, capped off with “surf and turf” bearing lobster thermidor and filet medallions, as well as a birthday cake. The full birthday menu is below and reservations can be made at 310-917-6671 for tonight’s fete or future commemorative prix-fixes.
