Stella! has become one of the most sought-after fine dining experiences in the city, with a chef-owner, Scott Boswell, who is not afraid to take culinary risks. Boswell stays on top of a daily changing menu with his combination of razzle-dazzle and fusion flavors. His derring-do almost always pays off, as with the audacious duck five ways or caramelized escargots under savory lavender meringues. Constantly refining his cooking, Boswell also incorporates Japanese culinary influences into ingredient choices and preparations, as seen in the miso-and-saké-glazed Japanese mero sea bass with udon, green tea and soba noodles. When money is no object, check out the caviar list, where specialized caviars are priced from $100 to $300 per 50-gram serving. Among the frequently changing desserts, you would be lucky to experience the chocolate caramel ice cream bombe. Thoughtfully constructed and constantly evolving, the wine list offers choices that range in price, region and type. Stella!’s main room at the rear is fine dining formal; service is proper but friendly. The restaurant's name, of course, references one of the two female characters from Tennessee Williams' New Orleans-based play, "A Streetcar Named Desire.”
