Chef Laurent Quenioux
<>

Vermont co-proprietors, Michael G. and Manuel Mesta, are once again very pleased and honored to feature the exciting culinary creations of the award-winning and extraordinarily talented guest chef, Chef Laurent Quenioux. 

Chef Laurent has been a well-respected fixture in the Los Angeles culinary scene for some 25 years.  Many of you will remember Laurent from his days as the owner / chef of the beloved 7th St. Bistro and, more recently, Bistro K in Pasadena. 

This master chef's specialty is to artfully and ingeniously merge "classic" French dishes with unique and interesting ingredients found at local ethnic markets, treating gourmands to a lavish array of tastes and textures and truly 'cutting edge' cuisine. 

We urge you not to miss this opportunity to experience some of the most innovative and exciting food in Los Angeles.
