The Supreme Plate

The Supreme Plate

Since its beginnings as a culinary magazine five years ago, The Supreme Plate has expanded, and become one of the best rated restaurant and catering companies in the greater Los Angeles and Inland Empire areas. The roughly 1380 square foot restaurant, located in Rancho Cucamonga, was originally an Indian spice market, but The Supreme Plate has left no trace of its location’s previous business.

The cool, neutral palette, accompanied by pops of blue, green and orange are a soothing combination, in comparison to the “turmeric” yellow walls (as described by the owner) and brown floor tiles that filled the suite in its market days. The lobby and dining room floors are now covered in beautiful 21 by 21 inch gray-brown Italian tile. Behind the counter and throughout the kitchen, you will find the floors are covered in a custom gray epoxy with black and blue flakes. The walls are all a clean white, which helps the restaurant feel spacious and bright. However, the wall to the right of the counter features a large mural of The Supreme Plate’s logo, adding color and interest to the space.


The owner, Chef “Cheeba” Moscowitz, and Executive Chef “Roc” Thompson, told me that they were involved in every aspect of the remodel. “We did everything ourselves,” said Cheeba. “Disposed of the old materials (including a giant deli meat counter) replaced the old electrical and plumbing, laid the new tiles, painted, and put in all the new stainless steel appliances.”


I found myself really impressed by these two gentlemen’s overhaul of the space, especially since there were no public restrooms in the suite when they took over. “It was all from scratch, the walls, everything.” Now keep this between you and me, OK? The restrooms were hands down my favorite part of the restaurant. Now, I’m in no position to purchase a home or condo (reality of a poor college student), so seeing what was essentially my dream bathroom at The Supreme Plate made me a little envious (no judging). The gray tiles they used for the floor and walls, paired with gray wall paint, made these bathrooms feel extremely modern, chic, and luxurious. The look is something straight out of a design magazine.

I can only imagine that the remodel of this space was a tough project for those involved, but I’m sure you’ll agree with me in saying that the end result is outstanding. I believe this design, combined with their delicious menu, will keep The Supreme Plate a favorite for years to come.
