Luxury Dining
For a ultimate fine dining experience in Los Angeles check out the Water Grill. This restaurant was voted "best seafood in Southern California" by Zagat. Start your meal off with the seafood platter, then try dishes such as the Slow Poached Columbia River Sturgeon with Roasted and Puréed Red Beets, Warmed Spinach and Horseradish-Celery Sauce; and a Sumac-Coated Australian Barramundi with Lingguica and Grilled Monterey Calamari, Israeli Cous Cous and Castelvetrano Olives. For dessert try the Hazelnut Mousse, Blood Orange Creamsicles, Red Velvet Pudding or a Blueberry Marscarpone Cake. -

A great family fun restaurant to try while in Los Angeles is the La Serenata. Chef Jose Rodriguez brings you Mexican dishes such as Brocheta del Mar (Sea food brochette), Bistecitos en Salsa Guajillo (beef medallions in Guajillo sauce), Pollo en Salsa Ranchera (boneless chicken breast in ranchera sauce) and Bistecitos Rancheros (beef filet in spicy tomato sauce). Save room for desserts made fresh daily. -

For a taste of Cuban cooking you should visit Versailles. Here you can sample dishes such as Lechon Asado (Cuban Style Roast Pork), Bistec de Pollo (chicken steak), Bistec de Palomilla (Top Sirloin Steak), and Arroz Con Calamares (Squids and Rice).
