The overall impression of dinner [at Saffron in the Riverside Art Museum] was one of a chef who has total control of his artistic culinary palate and paints an array of flavors on the palate that will satisfy even the most finicky diner – with unusual combinations that work perfectly, virtually each and every time. An unusual change of pace from everyday fare.
