    Jonathan Gold Reviews Acabar

    Jonathan Gold is the Pulitzer Prize-winning food writer for Los Angeles Times, and this week he reviews Acabar , a newly opened "grand neo-Moroccan lounge-restaurant" in Hollywood that elevates the can of sardines. Jonathan recommends the can 'o' sardines, country crouton, porn bread, shrimp toast and the whole roast chicken with spinach.
