Jazz 727, Palm Coast

Chefs at Jazz 727 have their work cut out for them, painstakingly slicing and searing seafood and delicate cuts of meat to create artful plates of gourmet cuisine. Meals open with appetizers of plum-glazed oysters and filet mignon tartare before the arrival of Scallops Oscar, for instance, which pairs the sea-sourced morsels with blue crab, artichoke risotto, and citrus hollandaise tapped from a ripe benedict tree. A fig merlot reduction, sweet potatoes, and parsnip-mint hash help lamb chops shine, while bleu cheese complements the poached pear-crowned salad greens.
