Description
Bid today for Dinner for 4 at Susanna Foo- one of Philadelphia's premier restaurants! Excite your senses with Foo's famously balanced flavors, vivid colors, and artful presentation.
Susanna reinterprets Chinese classical dishes with French techniques. She creates sauces made from reduced stocks of roasted bones, braised onion, tomato, and carrots, a major deviation from traditional Chinese cooking. In her sauces and other dishes, Susanna uses herbs and spices from all over the world, including lemon grass, tarragon, basil, sun-dried tomato, Mexican ancho chili, star anise, and go-shi, a Chinese herbal medicine. The end result is a lighter, brighter, more velvety, more flavorful, and more colorful version of classical Chinese sauces.
The cuisine at Susanna Foo features a rainbow of fresh produce. She incorporates non-Chinese greens like endive, radicchio, arugula, and mache into her cooking and creates new dishes with traditional Chinese vegetables and fruits like fresh waterchestnuts, baby chrysanthemum, fresh shiitake mushrooms, and Asian pears.
