Smokehouse Restaurant

4420 Lakeside Drive Burbank, CA 91505

PlanetEye Guide

The Smoke House was founded in 1946 at the corner of Pass & Riverside in Burbank. The original restaurant seated 46 people, and was enjoyed by local luminaries Bob Hope and Bing Crosby (among others) on its opening night. With Jim Stockton as the promoter & front man, and Jack Monroe as the cook, the restaurateurs enjoyed much success and were soon looking for a larger building with more seating capacity. The Red Coach Inn at 4420 Lakeside Drive, originally build in 1947 by Danny Kaye, never opened as a restaurant because he couldn't build a big enough dance floor in the 6,000-sq.-ft. building. In 1948, The Smoke House moved into the building. The restaurant's success continued to grow under its slogan "Fine Food at a Fair Price". Hours: Monday - Thursday: 11:30am - 4:00pm (Lunch) & 4:00pm - 10:30pm (Dinner) | Friday: 11:30am - 4:00pm (Lunch) & 4:00pm - 11:00pm (Dinner) | Saturday: 11:30am - 3:00pm (Lunch) & 3:00pm - 11:00pm (Dinner) | Sunday: 10:00am - 2:30pm (Brunch) & 3:00pm - 9:00pm (Dinner)

Village Pizzeria

131 N. Larchmont Blvd., Los Angeles, CA, United States, 90004

PlanetEye Guide

When the original owner moved to San Francisco in the early 1970's, the only thing he missed was his favorite Brooklyn pizza. the hearty, zesty meal of his childhood made San Francisco's Pizza seem pale in comparison. In search of the taste of his youth, in 1979 he and his partner opened the first Village Pizzeria. They believed they could combine Brooklyn flavor with California fresh and produce a truly great pizza. California "Fresh" means just that - no additives - fresh. The dough for the pizza crust is prepared daily using fresh yeast and allowed to "proof" (rise). the resulting shell is a true baker's crust. Village Pizzeria uses the best Wisconsin mozzarella available. To insure the quality and freshness of the toppings, we make our own sausage, meatballs, marinara sauce, fresh crushed garlic and clam mixture and pesto according to specific "special" house recipes. We only use fresh cut produce. Hours: Open daily Monday - Thursday 11:30am - 9:30pm | Friday - Saturday 11:30am - 10:00pm

Harold & Belle's

2920 W Jefferson Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90018

PlanetEye Guide

In September of 1969 Harold Legaux Sr. along with his wife Belle opened Harold and Belle's. It had been a dream of Harold's to have a place where friends from home (New Orleans) would gather, talk over old times, shoot pool, and socialize. His kitchen was small and the menu was simple. It featured Po-Boy Sandwiches, Red Beans and Rice, and File Gumbo served only on Friday. After the passing of Harold Sr. in 1979, Harold Jr. and his wife Denise took over the full operation of the restaurant. Unlike his father who enjoyed the pool playing, and bar atmosphere, the younger Harold preferred a finer dining environment with linen table cloths and candle light. Having a passion for cooking, Harold Jr. introduced several new items to the menu including Shrimp Scampi, Shrimp Creole, Crawfish Etouffee, and Clam Chowder. He even offered Gumbo every day. In 1984, Harold and Denise brought in partners Al and Sue Honore. Together they expanded the restaurant from 12 dining tables to 35 dining tables, and the kitchen has tripled in size. In 2002 Ryan Legaux, the son of Harold Jr., returned to the restaurant to work full time and is now General Manager. Together they are involved with the daily operations and have taken Harold and Belle's above and beyond Harold Sr.'s original dream.

If "Twin Peaks" director David Lynch designed a south-of-the-border bar, this is what it would be like. Mounted bull heads watch over tequila drinkers, while black velvet paintings of Mexican wrestlers survey the room.

Named after a coveted variety of French olive, Lucques offers inspired rustic Mediterranean cuisine with strong California influences. And it's served in an idyllic setting: the former carriage house---transformed by designer Barbara Barry---of silent film star Harold Lloyd. Dine inside in one of the booths near the fireplace, or outside, on a lovely patio where the walls are covered with climbing vines. Chef Suzanne Goin, who clearly picked up some valuable knowledge working at places like Campanile and Chez Panisse, utilizes a wealth of intriguing vegetables from local farmers markets to produce a contemporary Mediterranean cuisine as clean as the stylish setting. Some representative starters from Goin's regularly-changing menu include veal sweetbreads with quince purée, fennel, prosciutto and a hint of vanilla; and a lively salad of apples, Asian pears, radicchio and mint with buttermilk dressing. Among the entrées, you may find pancetta-wrapped trout with sorrel, fennel gratin, verjus and crushed grapes; or a slow-roasted lamb sirloin with chickpea mash, Nyons olives and cherry tomatoes. For dessert, consider a fruit tart or a satisfying French cheese plate. You may also experience Goin's work nearby at sister restaurant A.O.C., where the focus is on small plates.

Shelter has been reincarnated into a two-level playground for the young and affluent. Just like Madonna, it stays ahead of the curve by constantly reinventing itself, effectively creating a new club in the same space every three months. With a rep for being raw and salacious, the Strip’s latest haunt is a definite must-go for anyone looking to make the scene. In the beginning, it had the feel of a gothic palace with black walls, bondage art, and sexy waitresses in torn, black leather outfits and feathery fauxhawks. But, much like we did in ninth grade, Shelter got over the goth look. It was then transformed into a Nordic lodge with a working fireplaces, fur-covered furniture and waitresses in outfits that show off their bunny slopes. Now, it has the feel of a St. Tropez discotheque with white walls, vinyl furniture, spacious patios and waitresses dressed in tight white outfits perfect for a night out on the Riviera. The getup is so convincing, you almost expect to see Brigitte Bardot (circa 1969) when you turn the corner. While people shake it on the dance floor in the main room, the real action happens in the downstairs lounge, where people aren’t afraid to let loose and indulge in a little debauchery.

Modeled after a French palace in Loire Valley, Chateau Marmont is graced with 63 rooms, suites, cottages, bungalows and penthouses. Almost all the accommodations have a kitchen, and all of them have sound proof walls (make what you will of that!) If you arrive at the Chateau with a preconceived notion of what it will be like inside, you'll be delighted to know that you're probably right. The decor is a patchwork blend of gothic, retro-rival and retro-chic working in concert to create a hotel that is both historic and hip. Now, arriving at the Chateau on Sunset strip with a vision of what it will look like is one thing, but anticipating who you'll encounter, or what you might get up to while you're there, is quite another.
