Across the street from their wonderful library. This is one of better roof top restaurant and bars. Reservation is needed to the dining tables. We opted for the bar instead. There is a girl at the reception of the US Bank Tower Lewis Brisbois lobby, checking attires. Two elevators later, we arrived at the dark entrance, which showcases the panoramic view of the city and Hollywood Hill beautifully.
The most striking buildings in our view is the Inter Continental hotel downtown @ 900 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90017.
I enjoyed their decor, service and food. The sunset is simply marvelous. The handsome bar tender is a seasoned pro, who added commentary after we picked our wine: Mendel Malbec 2021 is the winner! Gundlach Bundschu fm Sonoma County 2022 is good too, but not as good as the Malbec. We couldn’t drink more because we’ve small pre concert hour at Disney Hall – the wine is most likely not as good as 71Above.
A few small plates are all wonderful.
- Liver mousse
- pork belly skewer … 东坡肉 -:)
- Chicharrones
I captured the motion of the bar tender making cocktails and asked if I can post it publicly. He said sure, and thanked me for asking.
他们的东坡肉和咱们的东坡肉有的一比 … 快去申遗 [偷笑]
