- Comments: Alsace-born chef Serge Burckel, chef-proprietor of One, a new Los Angeles restaurant on La Brea Avenue, brings the flavors of a Christmas pudding - cinnamon, cloves and sugar - to his plum ragout. He serves it with a chocolate cream, that was a controversial combination in the Times Test Kitchen. Some hated it; some loved it. All agreed, however, they could imagine the sauce shining in many contexts, not the least over ice cream.
