Advance Notice. dineLA restaurant week.

dineLA's restaurant week(s) is back for its winter edition! The two-week foodie extravaganza is hands down the best way to try and experience the best that L.A. -- and its amazing restaurants -- have to offer. It's prix-fixe menus (but you often get choices) at a discounted price, and so allows everyone the chance to indulge in places they usually wouldn't be able to afford.

The list was officially released yesterday, and can be seen here (click on the restaurant names for menus). Lunch ranges from $16-$28, while dinners are $26-$44. Some of my personal musts? The Bazaar by Jose Andres at the SLS Hotel, Susan Feniger's STREET (Kaya toast! Though not officially on the menu, must be tried), and insiders' fave Waterloo & City. Happy L.A. grubbin'!

dineLA restaurant week(s) takes place Jan. 23-28 and Jan. 30-Feb. 4. Make your reservations early, business gets busy!
