Sustainability cuts a chic figure in Abode's modish mid-century decor. Slabs of rich walnut have been culled from Greenpeace-approved rain forests, distressed wood planks are recycled from a 200-year-old Temecula farm, and the leather chairs? Well, they're for style. The environmental credo also composes an impressive menu of meticulously-harvested food products—with impressive prices to boot. Lobster in raisin sauce, Wagyu tenderloin with merguez sausage foam, foie gras and oysters both as a four-set—who said sustainability is without its indulgences?
