We have created a space that feels as if you alone have discovered it, as you wonder how on earth you haven\u2019t been here before.<\/p>\n

One hundred year old olive trees make a powerful statement as they twinkle with candles in lanterns, or cast speckled sunlight down onto fresh white tablecloths, often adorned with my signature pink or violet flowers.<\/p>\n

The many architectural elements indicate the intense thought that went into creating this project. The sides of a nineteenth century Parisian bridge create the fascia of the bar, which is adorned by a plethora of antique crystal chandeliers that are dimly lit. Just behind the bar is a little nook for privacy that one imagines has already been witness to many t\u00eate-\u00e0-t\u00eates and late night cocktails among the loyal following that VANDER PUMP has created.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”115″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=”justify”]There is an antique stone fountain that dribbles softly, adding to the unique ambience that VANDER PUMP has to offer. Reclaimed wood with sumptuous banquette seating is decorated with a feel of old French decadent countryside; mixtures of velvet damasks that you want to sink into. Inside, hanging over the bar, are enormous lanterns that have been rescued from a bygone era, coupled with a smattering of chairs and stools covered in burlap.<\/p>\n

Is it eclectic? Certainly, but it is more than that\u2026there is a unique mix of design that has been a labor of love.<\/p>\n

Dinner is a casual but rather splendid affair with choices of dishes from around the world, as is so common in California. Crispy Chicken Milanese topped with arugula and tomatoes is a classic that one would expect, but the Pistachio Crusted Salmon, or the Tuna Tartare with pomegranate seeds, or even the delicious Papaya Stuffed with Shrimp & Crab (my own recipe) I believe are a welcome surprise. If one dares to ignore the calorie counting for a second, one can order the Pinky VANDER PUMP Burger, topped with feta cheese and caramelized onions, which is presented on a board with chunky rustic fries!<\/p>\n

For dessert there is a decadent selection of homemade pastries which chef Penny Davidi has a passion for. Cream puffs, chocolate ganache cake, or a delicate pink rose mousse seem to exemplify what Pump has to offer.<\/p>\n

The cocktail list is extensive and reasonably priced, with a plethora of delicious options. LVP sangria is highly recommended, as you sit back and enjoy the sounds under the olive trees and feel Pumped.<\/p>\n

Love Always,<\/p>\n
