Mister Parker's
Times Staff WriterWe rush in, late, through the tall orange doors, past the suits of armor standing sentry in front of the bathrooms, barely taking in the spangled Moroccan cushions on the sofas, the oversized lamps and the stacked art and architecture tomes in the...Tags: New York, Mussels, Personal Service, Foods and Beverages, Mushrooms

Giorgio's: Old style with lots of attitude
Times Staff WriterWhen it comes to food and wine, $90 can buy you a lot. At Sushi Dokoro Ki Ra La in Beverly Hills, for instance, it buys you a complete omakase (chef's choice) lunch, including a couple of glasses of Otokoyama junmai sake. At Hatfield's in Los Angeles,...Tags: Foods and Beverages, Pasta, Butter, Gorgonzola, Dining and Drinking

Take sides
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and with it another gut-busting meal of starchy comfort food. But be honest: It's not the turkey you've been dreaming about. Who looks forward to an overcooked bird that no amount of gravy can rescue? Turkey Day,...Tags: New York, Chicago Restaurants, Pumpkin Pie, Potatoes, Butter

Sophisticated lady
Times Staff WriterAn actor friend from the East Coast told me some years ago about driving down Sunset Boulevard — Route 66 — when he first came west and saw Sunset Towers looming in the distance.

Restaurant reviews: Corson Building and Cascina Spinasse in Seattle
Restaurant CriticThe theme here these days is young chefs moving into outlying and up-and-coming neighborhoods to open small restaurants built with lots of passion and elbow grease.

Cafe Troia expands menu to match larger restaurant space
Cafe Troia has always been something of an anomaly in Towson, a white-tablecloth restaurant that has managed to survive, even flourish, for 23 years.
These are scary times to deviate from the "if it ain't broke" dictum, but when their landlord decided to...Tags: Lifestyle and Leisure, Zucchini, Summer Squash, Lemons, Garlic

Ocean is the hip place for tapas in Easton
Special to The Morning CallThree primary impressions stick in my mind following a recent visit to Ocean, a restaurant and lounge that opened a few weeks ago in Easton: One, the food was excellent; two, the place was noisy; and three, it was dark. The sense of darkness struck me...Tags: Foods and Beverages, Fennel, Leeks, Potatoes, Butter

Artisan offers sharp urban style in homey Paso Robles

Restaurant Sabor has a lot going for it
I'm always surprised that Baltimore County has so many chains and doesn't have more nice local restaurants - the kind that seem to pop up every other week in Baltimore City. If this bothers you, too, you'll be happy that Restaurant Sabor is now open in...Tags: Restaurant and Catering Industry, Carrots, Chocolate Cake, Potatoes, Oysters

From Positano, with a double shot of love
Times Staff WriterIt seemed kind of crazy: an Italian restaurant opening in West L.A., within pizza-flinging distance of Brentwood's olive oil-saturated Italian restaurant row. But there it was, a shiny new place on the second floor of a strip mall on Wilshire Boulevard...Tags: Restaurant and Catering Industry, Los Angeles, Foods and Beverages, Pasta, Pizzas

Delightful dishes abound at Bobbywood
Dave and I hurried through the double doors into the welcoming warmth of Bobbywood, finally out of the chilly wind winding down Norfolk's Monticello Avenue. The host checked our reservation, then asked us to follow him.
We went just around the corner...Tags: Foods and Beverages, Lifestyle and Leisure, Apples, Bars and Clubs, Potatoes
