Here in L.A. we're throwing our first big Gala Salt Tasting Event and the response has been phenomenal (see post below for details). Meanwhile, the LA Food Blog scene is talking about Saltistry's Salt Tasting as well as another cool tasting going on at Chef Daniel Snukal's restaurant 3 on Fourth. Now, I know we have lots of die-hard fans out there and several of our loyal customers are screaming foul over these events happening so close together. But the truth is, everyone loves great salt, especially a chef. Chef Daniel is showcasing a beautiful Sake maker beside some interesting salt curing and inventive salt preparations. In my book, any salt tasting is a beautiful thing and I highly recommend checking out both events if you can do it. Here's the 3 on Fourth menu and info :Chef Daniel's Tasting Menu
- Himalayan Salt-seared asparagus and Wagyu beef
- Himalayan Salt-cured halibut and Kampachi Sashimi
- Housemade potato chips with citrus salt
- Sweet cherry port jellies with fleur de sel
And if you’re still famished after the $45 event, there’s a $35 prix fixe dinner available downstairs to salt tasting attendees.
6:30-8 pm. Wednesday, March 26. For reservations, call (310) 395-6765. 3 on Fourth, 1432A Fourth Street, Santa Monica

thanks for the tip but the price is a little steep for me! I'll stick to the saltini and eating my weight in truffle salt.
Hey I heard about another cool tasting they did with the Beer Chick! She is sooo awesome! LOve her almost as much as I love salt. :)
I caught her (The Beer Chick) at savor the season with the salt chicks. That event was really fun, loved the upstairs women powered libations (Bonnie Graves, Cheese Improsario and Madame Chocolate all in one area).
I was pretty upset at first about this other event! I want all LA foodies and salt lovers to check out the original salt party without being pulled in other directions. But, you're right Saltsmith, there's enough salty love to go around!
the saltier the merrier!
I ate at 3 on 4 a few months ago because some friends highly recommended it. very disappointed. the food was fusion and seemed confused. i think the idea seems interesting but the overall experience fell short- too bad.
wish chef joni was still at the stove at balboa. her menu is still working at the current "boa" but the j-1 sauce isn't nearly as good.
my friends and i a psyched to taste her cooking again at the food court.
I ate there and loved it! you must have went on an off night- give it another try!!!!!
