The restaurant's namesake is in the
amaranth family. Its use in the kitchen and presentation on the plate are a perfect illustration of the chef's mentality.
The seabeach amaranth was listed as a threatened species in 1993 and is perhaps the only globally rare member of the typically weedy and economically important
amaranth family (Amaranthaceae).
Family Name (Latin and Common): Amaranthaceae, the
