Mollie and I both did the tasting menu, in fact, we did one five course menu, and one full tasting menu, which overlapped perfectly. Really have to hand it to these guys, the service was perfect from start to finish, and I have to definitely put this down as the best restaurant experience I've had in LA to date. Kanpachi (kagoshima, japan) *.

Went for a walk around the Hollywood Resevoir and when we got to the dam and walked over it, I noticed from peeking over the side that there were these really great busts of Bears.

You can't find it retail for under $120, and any resto that still had it should be charging $200 AT LEAST! Yeah, it's true, I get overtaken with labels sometimes, and yeah, maybe I wouldn't have jumped up and down if tasted blind, BUT, knowing what it was, asking to have it decanted, and checking out the floral nuances as it opened- EXCELLENCE!

And, of course, most importantly, "who's paying? You bet your ass I would! But me, I have the absolute opposite reaction,. Glamour shots by Tr...

A photo and video journal of things, people, and places I experience. Please enjoy. Tuesday, August 3, 2010. So, there are a couple of things at play here.
