Unexpected Stops Around Wilshire/La Cienega
Everyone assumes they know Beverly Hills — Rodeo Drive, the Golden Triangle, a zip code that announces itself. But the stretch of Wilshire near the new La Cienega D Line station is the other Beverly Hills: quieter, more lived-in, a 25-year-old jewelry shop and a 1930s Art Deco theater sharing the block with a farm-to-table restaurant that built its following one seasonal plate at a time. This is a full day here, coffee to dinner, and almost none of it is what you’d expect.
