dinner at Hatfields

Back in LA for the week. Had to visit some accounts in Orange County, Santa Monica and the Inland Empire. Kind of ping ponging all over the Southland. Had a chance to meet up with Dana and Bill for dinner at the new Hatfields on Melrose. The Times just gave it a 3 star review a few weeks back and I have been itching to try it. Had my 45th birthday dinner at the old place on Melrose and I still dream of the lamb chops. Jepepy joined for dinner as well. I love him. Never a dull moment or lull in the conversation with Jepepy around.




Had to pick him up at his job at the post production house. It's on Yucca across from Capital Records. Took this shot while I was waiting for him to come downstairs.

He was on strict orders though, not to order chicken. That's his go to meat when he is unsure of the menu. I think he was pleased with his choice.We were seated right in front of the kitchen. Very cool to watch the action in the kitchen while we waited for our meal. Had the lamb chops again. Can't go wrong with crushed date and mint crusted chops. Sooo good! Jepepy went with the Steak. He was pretty pleased. Dana did the Halibut and Bill the steak as well. I don't think any of us were disappointed with our choices.
