I will be in LA Nov 1-3, San Fran 4-11,Vegas 12-17, LA again 18-20.

The question i am asking is are all of these stores worth visiting to buy a decent suit? I was looking to narrow down the list or suggestions for alternatives. I have no idea what clothing ranges they sell since ive never been to any of them.

I personally prefer Barneys and Saks for suits. Won't be cheap though.

Dover sole, red snapper are very good. Fried oysters, rosemary biscuits, clam chowder, grilled artichokes, fried grouper sandwich all official.

Had the breakfast burger at rustic canyon goddam that **** was good. Love when you place the top bun on it the yolk breaks, gorgeous.

Fried garlic cauliflower was ******* great as was the butternut squash soup. Great beer list too and I don't know **** about beer.

Speaking of breakfast, I'm not a breakfast person generally, but the pizza with sunny-side up egg, speck, mozzarella, & tomato sauce at Little Dom's is pretty great.

Haven't had the pizza but their french toast wasn't bad. Problem is, most french toast pales when compared to Julienne's. They may not have my favorite kind but everything is just so solid.


Speaking of breakfast, here's a few shots from Canele:
