DINING BEAT A DAY FOR CORNED BEEF.


Byline: Larry Lipson

Saluting the Irish on St. Patrick's St. Patrick's or Saint Patrick's may refer to:
  • Saint Patrick's Day, named after the saint
  • St. Patrick's Purgatory, an ancient pilgrimage in Lough Derg, County Donegal, Ireland
 Day means lifting a glass of green beer or tasting a bit of corned beef and cabbage at a local pub.

All the better if the place has a name like Malone's, Sullivan's, O'Rourke's, Monahan's, Gallagher's, Brennan's, Dublin, Nolan's and, of course, the local Ireland's 32. All will be jammed - because this year the wearing o' the green comes on a Saturday.

It also means that restaurants like McCormick & Schmick's (Pasadena, Beverly Hills Beverly Hills, city (1990 pop. 31,971), Los Angeles co., S Calif., completely surrounded by the city of Los Angeles; inc. 1914. The largely residential city is home to many motion-picture and television personalities.  and downtown L.A.) celebrate this day pretty strongly (special food and drink offerings, decorations, parties, live music, costumes, et al.), as do Weber's Place in Reseda, Tom Bergin's Tom Bergin's Tavern is one of the oldest restaurant/bars in continuous operation in Los Angeles, California. Originally opened on Wilshire Boulevard in 1936 by lawyer Tom Bergin, it has been at its current location on Fairfax Avenue since 1949.  on Fairfax Avenue Fairfax Avenue is a street on north central Los Angeles, California. It runs from La Cienega Boulevard (which separates the Westside from the central part of the city) with Culver City at its southern end to Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood on its northern end.  and even the little Steak Joynt in North Hollywood.

ARRIVEDERCI: The original Spago in West Hollywood West Hollywood

A community of southern California northeast of Beverly Hills. It is mainly residential. Population: 36,600.
 isn't the only restaurant closing March 31.

On the same day Bistro Italia, 8635 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills, will serve its final meals prior to being turned over to the Beverly Hills T-Bone House Corp.

Obviously, this means that the moderately priced Italian restaurant will become a steak house steak house or steak·house

.

Bistro Italia owner Vito Sasso promises champagne or wine included with all meals henceforth as a farewell gesture.

Information and reservations: (310) 659-6740.

NO, NOT THAT ONE: And also somewhat ironically, considering that we'll be having only one Spago in these parts shortly, a prior major L.A. celebrity restaurant name pops up again.

Ma Maison, not related to the famed boite boîte  
n.
A small restaurant or nightclub.



[French, from Old French boiste, box, from Late Latin buxida, from buxis; see box1.]
 that once hosted the stars on Melrose Avenue, will open in two or three weeks at 3179 Los Feliz Blvd., according to co-owner Charles Glenn.

The new Ma Maison, strictly French, will be a full-service, tablecloth dining place, serving authentic, classic and contemporary Gallic meals at bistro prices, promises Glenn.

Chef and co-owner is Jacques Elery, who cooked at such renowned Paris restaurants as Lucas Carton and Le Grillon.

With an entree range of approximately $12 to $22, appetizers from $7 to $10 and desserts around $7, Ma Maison will be interesting to watch.

Information and reservations: (323) 906-9000.
