modern, cozy place with good food for a private wedding party dinner

Our party was two years ago - as far as I can recall, we paid approximately $50 a person.

modern, cozy place with good food for a private wedding party dinner

I've done a private party at Il Moro in West LA with great success.

Kosher Dairy Caterer in Los Angeles

I'm looking for a kosher dairy caterer in Los Angeles. Specifically, I'd like someone or someplace that can deliver high quality fish platters, bagels, tuna salad, egg salad, etc. for a baby naming or bris in Manhattan Beach. Thanks in advance.

ISO South Bay deli catering

I know that Brent's Deli will deliver to Manhattan Beach.

Comparing Persian Restaurants

I think it's on 9th Street. I always have it delivered.

Love Shekarchi! Just had it for lunch today. Yum.

Places with private rooms for 10-15 people in LA?

I hosted a party in Il Moro's private room and it was amazing. Well worth the money. The food was great and the service was perfect.

Manhattan beach area

In Manhattan Beach, I enjoy Petros (upscale Greek) and Cafe Pierre (french). Talia's is also good. My family eats at El Gringo (casual Mexican) at least once a week. Uncle Bills or Koffee Kart are both good for breakfast.

Best Greek in LA

I really enjoy Petros in Manhattan Beach.

Brisket- Slow cooked Recipes??? & Pot Roast

I almost always use the second recipe you listed but use a can of Coke instead of red wine (sweet and savory). My family loves it!

South Bay Favorites (VERY LONG)

The Chinese place is called Szechuan.

Passover Brisket

That's the recipe I use - plus I add a can of coke. I think you can find kosher for passover "coke."

Breakfast in South Bay?

Koffee Cart is not closed. I just ate there this morning and it was good as ever.

Rec a restaurant in Santa Monica for cheese tasting

Melisse has an amazing cheese selection.

le CREUSET DUTCH OVEN :: Where to get the lowest price

Apparently I used some coupon code because my credit card statement indicates that I only paid $197.05.

le CREUSET DUTCH OVEN :: Where to get the lowest price

I got mine for $219 at cutlery and more. Free shipping and no tax - plus they included a Le Creuset cookbook and some silicone spatulas.

Simple Jewish food

My favorite and easiest brisket recipe: 1 brisket trimmed of all fat, one can of coke, one packet of onion soup mix, and 1 botte of Heinz chili sauce. Mix together and bake at 350 until tender (usually around 3 hours). I find it easier to bake the day before and slice when cool. Reheat the day you're serving with the sauce. Delicious!

I also recommend the California Kosher cookbook (I know you said he's not kosher, but the book is good.) I think it's out of print, but you can easily find a used copy on the internet.

Enjoy.

Shepards pie

Nigella Lawson has a great cottage pie recipe in "How to Eat."

Sushi Catering for a Wedding

I've had pretty good sushi catering by Kamiyama

Is a wooden spoon just a wooden spoon?

Is there any difference in wooden spoons . . . or can I just buy the cheapest one I can find. Thanks.

Private party in South Bay

Il Fornaio in Manhattan Beach/El Segundo has really nice private rooms. The food is definitely decent.

L'Orangerie: Yea or Nay?

I went a couple of weeks ago and the food was wonderful - so was the service.

Blintze souffle recipe without orange juice

I'm looking for a great blintze souffle recipe without orange juice to serve at my Hanukkah party. Thanks in advance.

Great Vietnamese in Downtown LA

Totally agree! I eat the #21 on a weekly basis.

A Romantic Dinner that doesn't suck??

One Pico at Shutters Hotel in Santa Monica has great food and a nice view.

HELP-Avenue closed Sunday! Need fine dining in Manhattan Beach.....

I think so.

Cafe Pierre has good food, but it is not terribly romantic - the room is small and the tables are close together. Petros, I've heard, has good food, but I've also heard the room can get a bit noisy.

Another option is Mangiamo. They have a back room that is romantic and the food is pretty good. Their sister restaurant Thalia's also has good food.

GOOD PLACE TO DINE NEAR THE WATER

I enjoy One Pico at Shutters Hotel in Santa Monica.

Anyone been to Sushi Go 55 yet?

I totally agree. I went a couple of months ago based on reviews. I ordered the lunch special and was extremely disappointed. The fish was tough and inedible. My friends at the table also found the sushi below par. I will never return.
