— LA Weekly has a lengthy look at Craig Thornton's new Sharksteeth, which takes place in a house that's rebuilt for tasting menus. The seafood-centric menu has Thornton thinking more about what the diner wants from a dish: "After talking to people, you realize that what is more important to them is really actually enjoying the taste of a dish more than enjoying the idea."
