Our Guest Blogger, Bonnie<\/a> sure knows how to pick\u00a0the cool places.\u00a0 She recently stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel in Westlake Village, where she dined at\u00a0Hampton’s Restaurant<\/strong> with two long-time friends.\u00a0 When she returned, she said she had one of the best nights of her life.\u00a0 Wow!\u00a0 It was a magical explosion\u00a0of great food, excellent service, beautiful surroundings, good friends, special tours, lots of drinks, laughs\u00a0and a million dollar wedding to crash, that made her visit so amazing.\u00a0 I love nights like that.\u00a0 She reports about it as follows…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As it turns out, you don\u2019t have to go back east to experience the headiness of the Hampton’s Restaurant<\/a>. All you have to do is visit its namesake restaurant at the stunning Four Seasons Hotel in Westlake Village<\/a>, California. You won\u2019t be disappointed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hampton’s recently introduced two new extravaganzas \u2013 on Friday evenings, you can enjoy their \u201cSeafood Sensation\u201d buffet, featuring fresh lobster, chilled crab claws, shrimp and sushi. On Saturday nights, they offer the \u201cPrime Time\u201d buffet, which is what we opted for.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Prior to the food, let me share the setting… The restaurant is located on the ground floor of the hotel, right in front of their fantastic waterfalls. It\u2019s the waterfalls that make this hotel a stand out and luckily for us, we got a \u201cprime\u201d seat with the best view of this delightful, romantic feature.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Once seated, we were immediately introduced to the Hotel\u2019s \u201cAmbassador,\u201d Manager Thomas Humphrey, who graciously treated us to a private tour of the restaurant.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

First, we visited the salad buffet. Mind you, this is not\u00a0your ordinary, run-of-the-mill salad buffet \u2013 it\u2019s all <\/em>locally grown by long time farmers in the nearby community of Camarillo. Moving on to the manned carving station, this is where they showcase a rotating selection of organic and sustainable meats such as chicken, pork and prime rib, which are roasted,\u00a0 grilled, barbecued and slow cooked to perfection.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then we moved into the kitchen \u201carena,\u201d where the centerpiece attraction is a mind-blowing 2 \u00bd ton Bonnet Maestro range, custom made in France for the sum of $250,000 \u2013\u00a0a quarter of a million dollars! And this hotel is home to not just one, but four of them. Do the math, and you will come up with a pretty heavy-duty investment in \u201covens.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next we toured the pastry station, which is manned by Chef Laufer, and the interactive Chef\u2019s stations for their made-to-order macaroni and cheese and baked potatoes. Incredible! And as if that\u2019s not enough, when we went back and sat down at our table, they brought out three sizzling skillets with our very own filets in them. Dessert followed, and it all amounted to one of the most amazing, interactive meals we have ever had.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

P.S. After closing down Hampton’s<\/a>, we crashed a wedding at the Hotel that must have cost as much as they invested in their ovens!\u00a0 Check out the cake.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thanks Bonnie<\/a> — I wish I’d been there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
