I wholeheartedly agree with Kerry Simon's pick of Animal Restaurant. Not only the best restaurant I've been to in Los Angeles, but hands down one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. Their seared foie gras atop a buttermilk biscuit & maple sausage gravy is so unbelievably perfect and extraordinary that I could write a book of sonnets about it. And I am not a poet (unless you count limericks about politicians, pundits, & world leaders).

Is the word "local" in the headline just because it's trendy? Aren't ALL restaurants "local" to SOMEBODY? The article doesn't indicate that these restaurants specialize in "local food," so what's the point?

I think what they mean is not franchised or cookie cuttered and replicated just anywhere. By 'local' they are inferring 'one offs' or 'family owned and operated' and that you have to be in that hood to enjoy the place.

I was impressed that Chefs are promoting other restaurants rather than just themselves.
It's generally a shamelessly self-promoting industry.

By "local" we mean in the city where they live. If you go to www.findeatdrink.com, you'll see these chefs have given us recommendations all over the world. These particular restaurants are ones in their local area.

I'm guessing you're a faithful viewer of "Just Desserts?" He is one cool nibble, he is.

Saw him on a "Top Chef" challenge before "Just Desserts" started, too.
