Here we have Santa Monica's new Abode Restaurant & Lounge, which opens to the public next week, but previewed last week. Located behind Tengu on Ocean Avenue, you wouldn't know about it unless you knew about it, and, well, now you do. Walk around the eco-friendly decor, sit a spell in one of those fabulous chairs, nosh on Dominique Crenn's seasonal cuisine (ie. pork osso bucco with apple-berry compote, sea scallops with satsuma tangerines and vanilla sea salt). It's what happens when two people who own a coffeeshop named Asylum mature.
