Let
the good times roll and join
us on FAT TUESDAY for our first supper club dinner of 2009! Celebrate
MARDI GRAS in style with a specially created menu inspired by my
hometown of New Orleans.
This will not be our typical dinner party. I invite you to wear
your favorite beads, Mardi Gras masks and that feather boa you've been
saving for a special occasion. If you don't have any, we'll supply you
with some.

ERIC GREENSPAN
Chef
Eric Greenspan, who has worked at such influential award-winning
restaurants such as Union Pacific and Alain Ducasse at the Essex House,
and alongside such Michelin-acclaimed chefs as David Bouley and Ferran
Adria of El Bulli offers a limited, ever-changing a la carte menu,
blending bold flavors, perfect technique and creative touches that
reflect the American, French, and Spanish influences of his career.
While
sophisticated in both preparation and presentation, there is often a
touch of whimsy to Eric's cooking, a style that can only be summed up
by "modern American." While tasting menus are also available, the a la
carte menu features luxurious items with humble ingredients creating an
upscale, casual elegant feel; "fine dining for the everyday man."
The
restaurant's comfortable contemporary interior, courtesy of Sandy
Davidson (Meson G, Rocca) flawlessly parallels both the imaginative,
modern elements and the warm, traditional base of the cuisine. The
venue's hand-crafted, art-deco feel has been inspired by the
craftsmanship of the Machine Age and the industrial innovation of
Streamline Moderninsm. Sconces fabricated from vintage heat registers,
woor and steel accents, antique light fixtures and colorful abstract
art from the times provide a warm and inviting background.
With
it's modern American "fancy schmancy" cuisine, Sandy Davidson's art
deco, "warm yet industrial" design, live jazz in its lounge, and Los
Angeles premier outdoor dining room, The Foundry on Melrose has
"muscled its way in" to the fine dining scene of Los Angeles as
selected by Johnathan Gold's "Essential 99", Los Angeles Magazine's
"Top 75" and Conde Nast Traveler' s "Best of the New".
