Why do good things never want to stay?
They say it's hard to open restaurants, it's enormously expensive and the likelihood of going down in flames is pretty high. Today, we'd like to celebrate a restaurant that, for whatever reason, didn't make the cut. Paladar -- In the center of the Hollywood bar scene, it was a great place to begin the Cahuenga crawl. Get there before seven, and you got cheap mojitos. The food was pretty good even, standard Cuban dishes like ropa vieja and various pork dishes. Though it was fancier and less tastey than Versailles, it was good stuff. The atmosphere was sleek, slightly Asian influenced, candlelit. While sipping your cheap mojitos, you could feel the night, rising up around you, the bubbly beginnings of conversations, strolling across the pink and black stars, coming up in prickly high relief all around.
Paladar, 1651 Wilcox Avenue, Hollywood, CA
RIP you will be missed.
