When my friend Maria said, “OMG! Her food reminds me of [a certain Top Chef’s] creations,” I knew I had to taste chef Sam Basques’s dishes. And her steak crudo and ‘ahi poke-tini (pronounced po-kay-tee-nee) definitely met the criteria for onolicious delight.
For the steak crudo, the New York strip was cooked rare then sliced thin and served with Guamanian finadene, a Chamorro sauce akin to salsa. With just the right amount of tartness steeped in umami, the sauce tastes of tamari, vinegar, jalapeños and onions, and the dish is finished with a seven-spice chili oil. It paired perfectly with an ice-cold Bikini Blonde from Maui Brewing Company.
