>> medal detectors

Of all the many meals we consumed over the weekend, the four of us agreed last night while sipping a Sauternes that the best bite of the past 48+ hours went to the yellow tail sashimi "croque madame" at Hatfield's. Silver medal to the potato taco at Lotería Grill and the bronze was awarded to the special Sunday fried chicken at Chateau Marmont. The best design element of the weekend also went to Hatfield's with the above honeycomb-shaped chandelier/light sculpture. All that said, it is very tough to compete on any level with a warm Valentine's Day night spent on the patio of The Chateau Marmont with great friends.
