Last month, Wazuzu’s Jet Tila launched Bistronomics at BreadBar, a pop-up with chef Alex Ageneau that found Tila hosting while Ageneau cooked a market-intensive mash-up of European technique and global flavors. Bistronomics is coming back in April, this time for two nights under the theme “Play with Your Food.” This means utensils will be optional for spring-showcasing dishes like foie gras butter with radishes, rhubarb marmalade, and toasted bread powder and Japanese-accented charred asparagus with bonito flakes and rice espuma. There will be two nights to indulge in the $65 pre-fixe menu, both with two separate seatings, with reservations for the April 17th and 18th dinners at 310-205-0124. See the full menu below.
