Hi!

Today I read the op-ed in LA Weekly by the Preux and Proper owner, Josh Kopel. When this group started, it was a dream of mine to meet you while enjoying a drink or a meal and build a community of people who enjoy the city and wanted to explore its food. It’s surreal to think that we have been in lockdown for this long. I know many restaurants may be struggling and if you have a favorite, a local gem, please share with us.

For our anniversary we braved outdoor dining at Dear Johns - which was already worthy of celebrating as a unique local experience before COVID.

It looks amazing!

OP - if driving/traveling across LA is not an issue for you, I recommend the following restaurants based on neighborhoods:

DTLA: Bestia

Silver Lake: Pine and Crane, Night Market+Song

Glendale: Raffi’s

Pasadena: President Thai, Bone Kettle, Enya Sushi (also in DTLA and Beverly Grove)

Koreatown: Guelaguetza

Beverly Grove: Joans on 3rd, Toca Madera

Melrose/Fairfax: Taeem Grill

These are just a few of an endless list of amazing options.

My pleasure - if you like specific cuisines more than others, I can provide more recs.

Oh, another great option for pizza is Lucifer! They have a few locations around LA, I’ve only been to the one in Studio City.

Owned by Kiwis, interesting selection of pizzas such as lamb and rosemary. Super delicious!

That is the most inspiring “we’re closing” that I have ever read. It’s clear from his motivations that he will doing something just as special in the future.

I’ve been depressed for years now and this past week I lost a dog I’ve had for 15 years; he was one of the only bright spots in my life and I’ve just found it so hard to focus or motivate myself on anything after this. I genuinely feel like I’m at rock bottom, Idk if I’m crazy to feel that way bc of a dog but I used to be able to control this and put up a front but now my depression and anxiety are starting to leak into my work conversations completely unintentionally, I wish this would stop :(
