More information on Cafe Pinot
A member of superstar-chef Joachim Splichal's L.A. restaurant empire, Cafe Pinot is less formal and lighter on the palate -- and the pocketbook -- than his Patina restaurant at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. The restaurant's location, in the front garden of the L.A. Public Library, makes it a natural for Downtown business folk; at night there's a free shuttle to the Music Center. Be sure to request a table on the patio, shaded by umbrellas and the well-landscaped library courtyard.Splichal has installed a giant rotisserie in the kitchen, and this is where the best meals come from. The moist, tender, mustard-crusted roast chicken is your best bet -- unless it's Friday night, when you can order the roast suckling pig with its crackling skin. Other recommended dishes include the risotto, duck-leg confit, grilled calf liver, and seared peppered tuna. A kids' menu is offered, and (even better) kids under 11 eat free. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
