Cayenne Cafe is a great restaurant that sits at the corner of Beverly Blvd. and Formosa Ave. It’s a friendly run establishment with an authentic menu, daily specials and nightly entertainment. This spot is one of B. Scott’s favorite restaurants, if not the #1 location on his list. The owners are friends of his and supporters of the website, so we want to make sure everybody knows where to go for a good meal. Check out the experience after the jump…

April 9, 2007 French 75: Star Watching, Live Jazz with a Bordello Atmosphere

Steak Frites!

I thought I’d share about a really nice restaurant that I found in Burbank called French 75. The atmosphere is wonderful. The live jazz band really puts you in a party mood. French 75 also offers a complimentary champagne toast around 8:00pm to 8:30pm Mon-Fri to all its guests. Best of all, it’s a great spot to be in a relaxed environment with a few of your favorite celebs! On my birthday a few cast members from ER were there as well as John Stamos, all just sitting around the bar having a good time. French 75 has that upscale feel with fairly down to earth prices. My only problem I encountered was I probably should have called a few hours before I came because they forgot my reservation but it was a very particular case so I don’t think it’s a common problem AND the manager gave me and my entire party (about 14 people) free champagne. We also got free glasses at the 8pm toast as well. I tried a few other drinks that were great. The food was very nice but the plus for this restaurant is definitely the atmosphere. Most of the furnishings in the lounge I was dying to take home!

Next to an Arnie Morton’s in a fairly nondescript office building, French 75 uses reds, vintage posters and tin ceilings in a seemingly impossible attempt to conjure Paris via Burbank. [LA.com]

April 6, 2007 You’ll Want To Go To Kado

img_1941.jpg

Last night was another grand opening celebration for Kado, a new sushi-teppan restaurant located in The Farmers Market near Beverly and 3rd. 944 Magazine hosted the event, and it was definitely a grand affair. Sitting just above Bath & Body Works, there lies a sprawling sushi bar/restaurant/lounge connected by a bridge of sorts in the middle. The name Kado means “corner” in Japanese which is fitting seeing as how it sits right at the corner of the intersection between the Farmers Market and the main area of The Grove. One part houses the revolving sushi bar called a kai-ten; the other part includes the bar and large dining area with the teppan tables. Read a little bit more about the night after the jump…
