Chickpea to Cook

Here’s an excuse not to cook this week.

Dozens of restaurants around Los Angeles are participating in the annual Restaurant Week, organized by DineLA.com.

Visitors can get a three-course meal at some of the best restaurants in LA for $25-$34 ($15-$22 for lunch).  Among the participants are favorites like Asia de Cuba, Crustacean, Wolfgang Puck’s Chinois on Main, Patina, and Chaya Brasserie.

For a full list, check out dinela.com. You can view menus and make online reservations, which are highly recommended.

I’ll be going out of town later this week but hope to sample one or two places before I go. Watch for my reviews here.
