The Gold Standard: Ludo Bites at Breadbar

LA Weekly Counter Intelligence columnist and Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Jonathan Gold bites into Ludo Bites at BREADBAR, a three-month dining experience and collaboration between chef Ludovic Lefebvre (of Bastide and L'Orangerie), the Beverly Hills Cheese Shop, and BREADBAR. Bring a bottle of wine and eat lots of tiny, delicious courses made with the freshest ingredients available. One special is cordon-bleu, which is chicken cordon-bleu without the chicken, just serrano ham and cheese, breaded and grilled, garnished with grape-blue syrup. Price $18. Other must-trys are the "broccomole" (like guacamole, except with broccoli,) smoked salmon with lentils and trout roe. Jonathan recommends ordering the cheese plate combined with the appropriate condiments.
