The Patina Group, one of LA's biggest high-end restaurant groups, has opened yet another lovely location at LACMA, Los Angeles's main art museum. It's the final component in a new wing that was designed by famous architect Renzo Piano, and has both a retro-chic indoor dining room, and a convivial indoor-outdoor bar area. It's called Ray's and Stark Bar--which is a bit of a confusing name, if you ask me, especially since it's named after one single person, Ray Stark, a legendary Hollywood producer.However, the guys behind the stove and the bar are two well known LA fixtures, chef Kris Morningstar, and "barsmith" Michel Dozois, and they're doing their thing, right at home immediately.
In addition to the buzz surrounding a restaurant opening, though, they're also barraging us foodies with a slew of specials, including this tribute to the late, great Elizabeth Taylor that coincides with a photography exhibition at the museum.
Take a look at my story, complete with mentions of the special dishes and some of the standout signature menu items at the link below.
