Alma Fonda Fina

Chef-owner Johnny Curiel's highly anticipated Alma Fonda Fina opened in December 2023 in the former home of the Truffle Table. It did not disappoint. Nothing here is one-note — the beet salad, for example, is punched up with pickled golden raisins and a brittle made from nuts, seeds and pieces of the corn tortillas that are made in-house from heirloom corn. Nab one of the eight chef's counter seats for a front-row view of the plating process, as well as insight into how the dishes are made and the stories behind them.
