Seasons 52’s Cedar Plank-Roasted Salmon
Seasons 52 has become a go-to dining spot in cities all over the U.S. for fresh, seasonal fare. “Menu items come and go, but the one dish that is here to stay is our fan-favorite, brick oven–roasted cedar-plank salmon,” says Chef Elvis Bravo, who helms the restaurant chain’s Fort Lauderdale location. “The Norwegian salmon is prepared over cedar wood, which adds a smoked, aromatic flavor. Paired with wine or spirits, the savory entrée completes the holiday meal for festive gatherings of any size.”
