Drink Monkeys

Bar Marmont may be too cool for school. Often you can find it overstocked with celebrities and wannabees, a ridiculous scene. However, it is a beautiful place, decorated with fanciful antiques, with butterflies on the ceiling, it's very charming. They have number of great house drinks, included the infused martinis, dark Manhattans and the fabulous number nine, a mojito with a martini spin (made with vodka instead of rum and served in a martini glass). The bar menu is delightful, and you can easily pull a small plates meal from it, with the succulent tuna tar tar, the crisp green salad with chunks of nutty parmesan shaved over it and chicken saatay. Or have a whole meal, choosing the hanburger or portobello mushroom sandwich with fries.

So skip the scene, go early and enjoy the flickering ambience or sit outside and watch the evening sky change colors.
