My essential L.A. restaurant is ink.
My essential LA restaurant is Takami
My essential LA Restaurant would have to be Bestia!
LA has such an impressive line up of essential restaurants that it is a monumental task to only choose one! My essential LA pick though would be Redbird. I had an event there recently and was blown away by the food Chef Neal Fraser and his team created. I’m a fan!
My essential restaurant in L.A. is Pine and Crane. The food speaks for itself in the minimalist space.
