TUNA TARTARE TARTINE

One of my favorite places for a delicious lunch and a glass of wine in LA is Zinque. Number one on their menu, in my opinion, is their tuna tartare tartine. Fresh ahi tuna is mixed with salt & vinegar chips for the most scrumptious lunch to sink your teeth into. This homemade version is just as tasty and oh so good!
