First Look: Anaheim White House's Italian Steakhouse Menu

Why make changes to your menu if you've fared this long with your existing one? That's the question we wondered when Sir Bruno Serato (He was knighted recently, didn't you know?) began speaking to the group. It was simple, really. The reason had to do with perception. When callers would inquire about Anaheim White House's cuisine, Serato would state, "Italian". More often than not, the voice at the other end expressed a lack of interest in what they thought was a haus of pizza and pasta. Yet this was never the case.

In fact, there isn't a trace of pizza crust on their menu. However, to expand their reach to diners quick to make first impressions without ever stepping foot inside or doing any research online, they decided to expand. That's his story, and he's sticking to it. So we snapped a few photographs of dishes now being served.

Our opening shot is of their pan roasted, rack of lamb ($42.50). It's infused with local rosemary and served with lamb jus. It was certainly the most photogenic of the bunch.

Next we show a dish of white chocolate salmon ($30.95). Our one bite of seafood tasted much more appealing than it was described. A signature dish, the seafood is steamed and served with their Belgium white chocolate mashed potato puree and orange sauce.

For our parting shot, we selected a 10-ounce, North Dakota bison tenderloin ($65). Wrapped in hickory smoked bacon, it also includes a tart balsamic reduction. His steakhouse concept also includes an Australian Wagyu steak and New Zealand rack of venison, but those merit a visit.

Da San Bonifacio a Los Angeles: lo chef veronese che aiuta i bambini tra gli eroi della Cnn

Bruno Serato, scaligero di origini e americano d'adozione, è stato ricevuto oggi dall'amministrazione provinciale, che ha espresso tutto il suo orgoglio per un così fulgido esempio di solidarietà italiana all'estero

VeronaSera | La Redazion 25 Marzo 2013 | original article here

Oggi in Sala Rossa al Palazzo Scaligero, l’assessore alle Attività produttive Fausto Sachetto ha ricevuto Bruno Serato, chef di San Bonifacio titolare di un ristorante a Los Angeles inserito dal network televisivo Cnn nell'elenco dei “Top 10 heroes”. Erano presenti: Antonio Pastorello, presidente del Consiglio provinciale; Giuliano Zigiotto, assessore provinciale di zona; Antonio Casu, sindaco di San Bonifacio; Valeria Geremia, presidente del Consiglio comunale di San Bonifacio.

LA STORIA - Bruno Serato, che ha molto lavorato per aiutare i bambini indigenti, è stato il primo italiano a entrare nella Cnn top 10 heroes, la classifica che ogni anno seleziona tra 40 mila persone quelle che più si impegnano per il cambiamento della società. L'assessore alle Attività produttive Sachetto ha espresso tutta la sua soddisfazione: “La Provincia di Verona è lieta di dare il benvenuto ad un personaggio del calibro di Bruno Serato, sambonifacese di origine. Con il suo lavoro tiene alto l'onore degli italiani all'estero non solo per le capacità professionali ma anche per le straordinarie doti di umanità. Ristoratore di grido e vero esempio di eccellenza italiana, Serato coniuga l'attività imprenditoriale di successo all'impegno sociale perché distribuisce quotidianamente un pasto a centinaia di ragazzi in difficoltà. E' tipico dello spirito italiano , mettere in campo gesti di solidarietà nei confronti di chi è meno fortunato”. L'assessore provinciale di zona Zigiotto sottolinea poi l'eccellenza della famiglia Serato: “La vena imprenditoriale e sociale di Bruno Serato affonda le sue radici nel Dna dell'intera famiglia, anche qui nel veronese infatti i suoi fratelli hanno costruito un'importante azienda contribuendo a consolidare il livello di occupazione locale. L'apporto dato, da famiglie di questo calibro, all'immagine dei veronesi nel mondo è di valore inestimabile”.

LE DICHIARAZIONI - Lo stesso chef Serato ha espresso tutta la sua soddisfazione per il riconoscimento: “Ho ripercorso la strada dei migranti italiani che in passato hanno cercato di fare fortuna in America. Ma la data che più ricordo con soddisfazione è quella del 18 aprile 2005 quando per la prima volta ho fornito pasti caldi ai ragazzi in difficoltà. Questa iniziativa mi ha cambiato la vita e la cosa che più mi rende orgoglioso è l'essere arrivato a sfamare ogni giorno oltre 300 ragazzi raggiungendo un totale di 500.000 pasti. Questo senso di solidarietà mi è stato tramandato da mia madre e prima ancora dai miei antenati che si sono sempre contraddistinti con opere a favore di chi aveva bisogno”. Il presidente Consiglio provinciale Pastorello plaude al senso di responsabilità dimostrato dallo chef: “La matrice solidale, insita in progetti di questo tipo, è molto viva in tutta la nostra provincia e quindi dico con orgoglio che fa parte del carattere dei veronesi. Sono molte le iniziative benefiche che cercano di portare un aiuto in zone del mondo disagiate. Ricordo, fra tutte, il progetto "Amici di Roberto", che seguo in prima persona, che si occupa dei bambini poveri di Santo Domingo. Il senso espresso da queste opere è molto importante perché si fondono cuore, intelligenza e capacità imprenditoriale”.

Anaheim White House Catering Chef
To Receive France's Highest Honor

Maurice Brazier, executive chef of catering for the Anaheim White House, has been given one of France’s highest civilian honors, the Commandeur dans l’Ordre du Mérite Agricole, recognition attained by only 400 others in the world.  He will be feted on Saturday, May 4 by 100 top chefs including Pascal Olhats, Yvan Valentin and Octavio Montoya at a dinner at a private villa in Anaheim Hills.

Trained in his native Burgundy, France, Brazier enjoyed a long career with the Hotel Meridien, where he trained chefs at various properties around the world.

He also was appointed an Officer of Merit to the French Department of Agriculture and holds 1 of only 100 seats at the Academie Culinaire de France, an organization that has been governing French cuisine for nearly 200 years.  

In addition to his duties at the Anaheim White House, Brazier is President of Toques Blanches.

Situated in a historic national landmark mansion dating to 1909, the Anaheim White House restaurant offers a quixotic menu of northern Italian/French fare, extensive wine list, unparalleled service and an elegant setting to create a dining experience that is timeless, remarkable and without equal.

featuring Richard Nixon Library and

White House Catering

White House Chef (#mom103)

EPISODE PREMIERE: April 25, 2013

Original episode guide here

A devoted family man and passionate cook, Derek James had always dreamed of becoming a chef at the highest level, serving heads of state and dignitaries. After graduating with honors from Le Cordon Bleu culinary school, Derek dove straight into the restaurant business. But when his restaurant couldn't survive the economic downturn, Derek was left with bills to pay and a family to support, and for the sake of stability chose to put his culinary dreams on the backburner and instead pursue a career in IT.

Now, Derek is about to get one more shot at making his long-simmering dreams come true. Under the guidance of his new mentor, former White House Chef Walter Scheib, Derek will hone his culinary skills and master the fine art of cultural protocol, essential knowledge for a chef at the highest level. After a rigorous training period, Derek will get the chance to cook for and interview with a premier catering company that handles the high profile events at the Richard M. Nixon Presidential Library. Can he take the heat, or will Derek get out of the kitchen once and for all?

Hopeful Update:

After impressing the team at White House Catering, Derek was offered a chance to join the company. On the job for months now, Derek has numerous high-profile events under his belt. Score an invitation to a swanky party at the Richard Nixon Library, and you just might get to experience Derek's cooking for yourself!

The Gomez Family and Caterina's Club

This week, Caterina's Club provided the security deposit and first month's rent for the Gomez family (pictured with the youngest of their 5 children) to move out of the motels and into a 3 bedroom townhouse. We felt so humbled to be a part of this family's fresh start in their brand new home!

This is the 35th family that Caterina's Club has helped to support out of the motel lifestyle.

We wish them all the best!

CNN Heroes: Update on Bruno Serato and Caterina's Club

Hello my friends,

At the end of this month, I am hosting a charity gala for Caterina's Club to raise money for families living in motels. The event is Sunday, April 28th with a champagne reception at 5:30pm, dinner at 6:30pm and a fashion show by Betinnis in Brea. This is a cause that is very close to my heart, and I want this event to be a success so that we can help many families to sail out of motel living and into permanent and safe housing solutions. Would you help me raise money for Caterina's Club by selling tables and tickets to the gala on April 28th? Tickets are $250 per person or $2,500 for a table of 10. We also have sponsorship opportunities at $5,000 and $10,000.

My work in helping families move out of the motels is going to be featured on CNN this whole week. You can watch the video at the link below. There are so many more families that need our help, and the proceeds of this event will go directly to moving families out of the motels and into permanent housing.
