Description
It would seem pretty silly to expect any sort of British authenticity in this part of Hollywood, especially when the bar is helmed by the same guys behind Bar Lubitsch, the clubbish, Russian-inspired watering hole just down the street. Yet a dinner here probably will cure a case of the London Blues better than anywhere else in town, thanks to the sharp and concise menu from Spotted Pig alum Ralph Johnson.
A little jar of creamy chicken liver or a bowl of pickled vegetables is a fine way to start a meal. Next, buried in a list of small plates, is a kale salad dressed with a tangy mustard sauce and strips of crispy pig ear. Kale and pig's ear -- nothing could better capture this neighborhood's contrarian cravings than a salad like this.
