In this behind-the-scenes journey you’ll see: Fish breakdown at the line — from pristine whole fish to fine fillet and trimmings for their Sashimi course The creation and build of SingleThread’s iconic “Hassun” opening board, plated with precision in the kitchen. A tour of the Connaughton farm’s 24-acre regenerative fields, where produce, herbs, and edible flowers are grown for the restaurant’s tasting menu. Walking us through each station in the kitchen — the vegetable/flower station, meat and vegetables station Meet head chef of special-projects, Alex Fuentes And learn more about the ethos of “farm to table to plate” in one of America’s best restaurants. Moments of quiet artistry, raw craftsmanship, and true hospitality: how ingredients from the farm move through the kitchen into dishes that reflect season, place and story. SingleThread isn’t just a beautiful dining room — it’s a full ecosystem: a farm, kitchen and inn integrated around a mindful, Japanese-influenced service aesthetic and Californian terroir.
