YOUR GOOD GUY TO KNOW
Brett Cranston, Restaurateur

F Foodies take note: Cranston is one of the cats behind Silverlake’s killer one-two culinary punch, Sawyer (you’re getting the Spanish octopus) and Kettle Black (you’re getting the wood-fired polpette pizza). Whether visiting or a resident, both of these should be getting crossed off your dinner date list tout de suite.

When it comes to warm-weather suiting, light in weight is all well and good, but it’s when you start getting into light colors that you’re really cooking with petrol. Khaki (fun fact: from the Persian Khâk, literally meaning “soil-colored”) not only plays with just about every damn color on the wheel, but is also versatile enough to transition from your office rotation right into the weekend.

 

YOUR GO-TO WATERING HOLE?


Jones is my Cheers — drenched in low lighting, exposed brick and rock n’ roll. After everything, it’s the staff and friendships that keep this one in heavy rotation. ET, Matt, Kilby … I’ve put in some miles with them.

BEST DATE SPOT YOU’D RECOMMEND?


Who has time to date in LA? But I imagine Pacé — has a nice escape-the-city feel tucked up Laurel Canyon. Otherwise somewhere with a nice patio. Everywhere should have a patio in this town. Can we make that a rule moving forward?
