    The Dining Room

    Jonathan Gold is the Pulitzer Prize winning food writer for the LA Weekly.  This week he reviews The Dining Room at the Langham Hotel in Pasadena.  The restaurant, helmed by Michael Voltaggio, serves only tasting menus.  Jonathan recommends the langoustine with white asparagus wrapped in squid ink, and the fois gras terrine.
