My understanding is that it is the same owner as when it was a hole in the wall located in the mall with the Trader Joes west of La Brea. When I lived in that neighborhood I loved the place - Super warm service and excellent freshly prepared food. Anyone been to the new(er) location?
I haven’t, but you’ve intrigued me. I walked by it a zillion times going to that TJ’s, and never went in. It was always empty. I assumed it was a front.
A front ???
For, you know, the mob.
in LA ???
In that neighborhood? Russian mafia. Yes.
oh, shit.
btw: is that usual the sign of good food ???
in this case it was but this case was a little different:
the food was exceptional there and the fucking article is quite an interesting read.
