Easter Brunch
Tina and I joined friends Laurie and Gary for Easter brunch at Yamashiro, high atop the Hollywood hills. We love the restaurant for dinner — the best seared Tuna I’ve ever had — but the brunch thing…not so much. It’s pricey as you would expect ($45 per person, not counting drinks), and while the food was good, it wasn’t worth the money. The older I get, the less buffets appeal to me. Ultimately, I’d rather have one dish prepared very well instead of several that are just average.
Yamashiro also does a Mother’s Day brunch, too, but the Dime advises you to pass. The view at night is spectacular, but during the day, it’s just…LA during the day.
All I’ve got to say, if I left that buffet, I better be full and enjoyed my food. I will go on record and say that you would have got a better Easter meal at the Riddell’s and hope some day you (Brad), Tina and Bouncy will fill my heart and soul and join us here. We missed all of you. My prediction, it will happen, when, unknown yet, but it is to be. Some FICS AND FACTS FROM POPS ALMANAC!
