Not that I'm a pyro or anything ;)<BR/><BR/><B>FoodGPS</B>, It's a little far for me to visit regularly too. But it's definitely one of my Sawtelle options if I don't feel like ramen, sushi, Japanese curry or izakaya grub.<BR/><BR/><B>Esteban</B>, no problem - can't wait to hear what you have to say about it!<BR/><BR/><B>TonyC</B>, The pork loins looked great on the menu, didn't taste so great when we ate it. But teenage glutster had a better experience with that dish so maybe it was an off day.<BR/><BR/><B>Anon</B>, thanks for the recs! Will make a note of those specialties the next time I go.<BR/><BR/><B>Aaron</B>, that's why I try to jot notes whenever possible. And hey, I *did* forget the exact pricing of everything!

I ate there twice right after it opened, and liked both meals, but was never inspired to return. The smoked salmon with potato pancakes and foie gras with eggplant look especially good.<BR/><BR/>By the way, great feature to link to what other bloggers have to say about the restaurant.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35835685.post-79973263033227811142008-11-04T06:47:00.000-08:002008-11-04T06:47:00.000-08:00It's been years since I've been but I actually lik...It's been years since I've been but I actually liked it a lot.
