  • The Palm restaurant

    The Palm Restaurant that I go to is the one in West Hollywood. The decor is nice and whimsical. There are caricatures old and new of famous celebrities all over the walls and on some parts of the ceiling, which I love. The place gets packed, and loud, but I really like the mood of the crowd at the Palm. I think that every time I've been there a few tables were actually celebrating birthdays. I enjoy singing along in my head and peaking back at the happy parties. I'm weird like that. <A photo of part of the wall. I took this with my phone while waiting for my table. I just thought it was funny that some drunk bitch actually put her lips  the dirty wall, so she could fantasize that she was making out Jon Lovitz of all people. Someone must've had one too many Screaming Mimis.

    The restaurant doesn't look very fancy, but the service is outstanding. They are very charming, attentive, quick, and friendly. I remember once I was wearing a black dress and the maǐtre d' pointed it out and asked if I'd like a black napkin to match my lovely black dress. Nice. Two of my favorite servers work at the Palm. One is named Alessandro who reminds me of Lumiere the candle guy in Disney's Beauty and the Beast. He's very funny and I love his accent.  He has a lot of character. The other server's name is Morel. He's also quite the character. He cracked lots of funny jokes. I think I actually wrote a blog a while back about waiters and mentioned these guys. Basically, they're very interesting characters who really know how to entertain the customers. =)

    They also have a nice drink menu. They have lots of fun cocktails with whimsical names which is a plus for me. With names like the vixen and screaming mimi, I usually have a hard time choosing a cocktail. They have a long list, that I have yet to try. =) So far I think the Delicate Palm is my favorite cocktail from this joint.

    The Palm restaurant is hands down my favorite place to get lobster here in LA. Why? Because they have the tastiest, juiciest jumbo Nova Scotia lobsters steamed to perfection with butter on the side. No bells and whistles. Just really good lobster. They have other dishes at the Palm, but I've only tried the lobster with Caesar Salad and garlic green beans or asparagus. I sure one of these days I'll try the steak, but seriously, the lobster is just soooo good. It's huge, delicious, and consistently hits the spot. (That's what she said...or he said)
      <Yum
    <Now that's a fucking claw. MMM MMM bitch!
