"On the show, celebrities sit down with host chef Josh Scherer for intimate conversations about life, death and everything in between while eating a multicourse feast featuring dishes that hold significant meaning to the guest. One of those dishes for Olsen was the XO eggs from Valley Bar + Bottle, the Sonoma restaurant colloquially known as Valley, that has been serving seasonal California cuisine since opening on the Plaza in 2020."
"In the video, viewed more than 776,000 times, Olsen presented Scherer with the restaurant's spicy take on deviled eggs while singing the praises of the Valley owners. "I live in Sonoma, and my friends have this great restaurant," Olsen said before giving a personal shoutout to the four co-owners by name: chefs Stephanie Reagor and Emma Lipp, and front of house directors Lauren Feldman and Tanner Walle."
"Valley owners Lipp and Feldman told The Press Democrat in an email that Olsen "is an incredibly supportive friend and guest" and shared the secrets to her favorite dish. "XO sauce is a very special, very umami Cantonese chile condiment named for the quality mark on Cognac bottles," they said. Traditionally made with Chinese ham and dried scallop, Valley's version of the sauce instead uses chicken skin, bacon and anchovy-based fish sauce, "ingredients typical of the Valley kitchen," said Lipp and Feldman. That sauce goes on soft-boiled egg"
Elizabeth Olsen revealed her Sonoma residency and appeared Nov. 25 on Last Meals, a Mythical Kitchen YouTube series. She chose XO eggs from Valley Bar + Bottle as a meaningful dish during the multicourse meal. Olsen praised the restaurant and named its four co-owners while presenting the dish on camera. Valley co-owners described Olsen as a supportive friend and guest and explained the restaurant's XO sauce. Valley's version swaps traditional Chinese ham and dried scallop for chicken skin, bacon and an anchovy-based fish sauce, which is served on soft-boiled eggs.
