Description

Housed in a large, two-story brick building that looks like an old bank, the Federal Bar is a major cornerstone of NoHo's cultural revival. The bar and restaurant are spread out among several big, elegantly appointed rooms. The menu features basic fare like burgers and steaks, while the bar boasts more elaborate selections, ranging from rare Belgian, Russian and Czech draft beers to specialty drafts like Fat Tire, Maudite and Delirum Nocturnum. In the upstairs bar, live entertainment includes regular blues, comedy, jazz and rock nights, along with DJs from KCRW. Full bar. Street parking.

Event Review: Elizabeth E. King

| Sat, January 7, 2012

About E.E. King's, "Real Conversations with Imaginary Friends," at the Federal Bar on Jan. 8th: I've read this book, as well as other novels & shorts by this exceptional author. Her first novel, "Dirk Quigby's Guide to the Afterlife," hooked me, and I've been keenly interested in her budding career since. King has an imaginative & cunning wit, combined with a fun & entertaining style. I've met her, and she's as quick & engaging in person as she is on paper (or digital). I'm looking forward to hearing (and seeing) King tomorrow night. I urge all of you reading this to sit in, too. And, I certainly add recommending her books to anyone with an adventurous spirit. From "the" Ray Bradbury to Margaret Cho recommending E.E. King (what a span!), I doubt you'd be disappointed, to say the least. -Simply a fan
