I need to know the location! @CFu find out for me!
A friend in the film business is guessing here based on the video they posted.
They rent out the Paramour (which is walking distance from my house) for shoots all the time. Itās in a residential neighborhood, so Iām not sure if they could swing a restaurant there. Who knows.
I went to a fully catered function there once, so Iām assuming they have the capability. Itās a very cool place.
Yeah, friends have gotten married there. But Iāve been working with the Silver Lake Reservoirs Conservancy for 8 years now and am moderately familiar with how unhappy people near the reservoirs can get with proposals like that. But maybe if you own Silvertop, the joy of being able to walk to Noma would outweigh that.
No guessing required.
I donāt see a location mentioned?
I think RenƩ Redzepi nailed what is exciting about LA, exactly what I was referring to and what Michelin misses.
Donāt count your visas before they hatch.

Pretty clear itās a residence at Paramour. It could be anywhere though and it wouldnāt mater to me. I suspect the stampede to get in will be a spectacle.
Already preparing myself to miss out on reservations!

Itās a 5-month residency. I donāt know where itās at. Canāt wait to go! Iāve never been.
This probably should go in the Dallas thread but heās an LA guy
Really sad to read that Melody Wine Bar is closing. It was a really special place where we had many wonderful times. It was always busy; however, people just did not spend money. It is tough environment.
You can really tell how much it meant to its customers.

Paramour is an amazing estate. I almost had my wedding there (until they mentioned the slight case of the price 
), but it was a fabulous tour of the property. Would be an amazing venue for a place like Noma.
Finally went to Ki last night. Fantastic meal. 12-13 courses (first 3-4 are single bites) - well paced. Started at 645 - finished by 9.
Light years ahead of what he was cooking at kinn. Highly recommend

Hearing from a few in the know that the situation in DTLA is catastrophic. Go eat somewhere in DTLA if you can.
How/Why is DTLA, in particular, getting hit so hard? I could take a guess or three, but Iām curious what youāre hearing.
Like all restaurants in LA the restaurants in DTLA have been struggling for the myriad of reasons discussed here before. However the newest issue and the last nail in the coffin is the ICE raids and protests that are scaring people away from DTLA.

Thanks, Robert. I was wondering if the ICE gestapo was being cited as a contributing factor at this point. Sad reality we have these days.
