Border Grill of Santa Monica and Ciudad of downtown LA invite you to dine by candlelight as they turn off the lights for World Wildlife Fund's Earth Hour on Saturday, March 28 from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Owned by celebrity chefs Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger, Border Grill and Ciudad both feature "Good for the Planet, Good for You" dishes made with at least 80% plant based ingredients. Border Grill features Border Vegetables with cucumber quinoa salad, sweet creamed corn, caramelized onions, braised fennel, spiced squash, sauteed mushrooms, and black beans. Ciudad features Roasted Poblano Chile Relleno stuffed with potato rajas and cotija cheese on a bed of quinoa salad and a trio of salsas. In additional to serving only sustainable seafood, both restaurants use organic long grain rice, black beans, and coffee. Ciudad also uses organic milk and eggs, as well as beef, lamb, and uncured pork raised without hormones and antibiotics. Make a reservation for Earth Hour LA!
