In the latest March 2010 issue, I shot the Main Course article in the Dining section which covers the restaurant, SOL Cocina, in Newport Beach.  Chef Deborah Schneider not only puts out amazing food but is so very kind to work with as well.   The location sits right on the Balboa Bay with windows flanking the entire side of the restaurant that opens out into the marina.  The food and the view combined with a very friendly staff and cool decor makes this a very nice place to drop in for a meal with friends.  If you’ve never been, you should definitely check this place out – I just love their cozy firepit and insets in the wall that houses all those candles!
