And, let me tell you, my weekend meal was one of the best I have had in ages.<br \/>\n<img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"216\"  class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-794 pk-lqip pk-lazyload\"  title=\"christophers1\"  src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085627\/christophers1-80x27.jpg\"  alt=\"christophers1\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/www.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/christophers1.bmp\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085627\/christophers1.bmp 640w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085627\/christophers1-300x101.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085627\/christophers1-380x128.jpg 380w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085627\/christophers1-80x27.bmp 80w\" ><br \/>\nThe first thing that really made me happy when I walked into Christopher\u2019s was the d\u00e9cor. To my left was the Crush Lounge, which really has a great vibe to it, complete with dark colors and warm textures. And to my right, the dining room was an oasis of great design. I loved walking by the exhibition kitchen on the way to my table in the main dining room area\u2500I saw chef Gross himself at the burner, working his magic and giving patrons a visual preview of the edible art they come here to enjoy. That kitchen gives a great energy to the place and lets everyone know that while the d\u00e9cor is sleek, the main show here is the food.<br \/>\nAfter ordering a glass of viognier from the Paola Embry&#8217;s very easy-to-navigate wine menu, I looked over to the table next to me and saw a gorgeous white fish plate that I had to have. It turned to be the halibut special, so my entr\u00e9e was an easy choice for me. My husband opted for the filet mignon. But before our main course, we split a gorgeous beet, burratta and tomato salad that, like the restaurant itself, was bursting with flavor and color.<br \/>\n<img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"212\"  class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-795 pk-lqip pk-lazyload\"  title=\"christophers\"  src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085632\/christophers-80x27.jpg\"  alt=\"christophers\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/www.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/christophers.bmp\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085632\/christophers.bmp 640w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085632\/christophers-300x99.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085632\/christophers-380x126.jpg 380w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/taste\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/20085632\/christophers-80x27.bmp 80w\" ><br \/>\nWhen my halibut arrived it was piping hot, which is testament to the kitchen being so close to the diners. Hot fish is one of my favorite things, since it can make or break the first few bites of a seafood dish. Besides the halibut being cooked to perfection, the broccolini and baby potatoes that accompanied this well-presented plate, were a treat for the taste buds too. The filet mignon came a la carte, so we ordered the mixed veggie side to beef up the beef plate. My husband ate them all, and even asked me \u201cWhat have they done to these veggies to make them so good?\u201d Well, I have no idea what Christopher did to the veggies, but they were darn good and any time a man eats a whole two servings of veggies, I don\u2019t ask any questions.<br \/>\nWhen it came to dessert I also looked at the table next to me, who were all devouring a stunning tower of chocolate. I had to have it too. Aptly called the Chocolate Tower, this sweet treat is a silolike shell of white and dark chocolate filled with perfect chocolate mousse and berries. And just like every dish that arrived at our table before this grand finale, we cleaned the plate. 2502 E.
