Growing up in a Spanish Moroccan home, food and celebration has always been the focal point of life for Sam. We met him when he was honing his hospitality and service skills in the 3-Michelin-Star environment of Eleven Madison Park. Now, Sam’s a regular at the Santa Monica Farmers Market, where he sources the freshest seasonal produce for his private, Mediterranean-inspired dinner parties. We’re forever in awe of his culinary range; whether you’re looking for casual or upscale, refreshingly simple or deeply complex, make sure to book Sam for your next dinner party before a reservation at his future restaurant is the most coveted seat in town.
