A reservation-worthy La Brea French restaurant and bakery Roger booked over a month out for, with standout duck pate, escargot, foie gras and a soufflé worth the wait.
Start with duck pate or escargot or foie gras or short ribs or soufflé or croissant bread pudding, and check the restaurant’s current menu before you go.

“The duck pate is a must have for a starter.”
Booked over a month ahead for a 9:30pm Saturday slot; standouts include the Normandy butter with complimentary baguettes, duck pate, escargot baked in little pie pots, foie gras, and a soufflé worth the 15-minute wait. The carbonara was fine but unremarkable. Valet parking is $6.
