 THIS RESTAURANT HAS REOPENED AS WOLFGANG PUCK AT HOTEL BEL-AIR It is always a delight to cross the entrance bridge at Hotel Bel-Air that leads you to the most romantic hotel grounds in the City of Angels. After all, that is surely the reason why it has been called hotel heaven. It is so beautiful that we never know if we should go for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea or dinner. Every part of the day has a different charm, helped by the lovely terrace (heated from the ground in winter). The Dorchester Collection (Plaza Athénée Paris, Le Meurice, The Dorchester, The Beverly Hills Hotel, New York Palace, Hotel Principe di Savoia) has taken over the property and Bruno Lopez has departed the kitchen. We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of a new chef. In the meantime, enjoy the impressive wine list from sommelier Emmanuel Faure, starting at $38 for an Australian Cabernet Sauvignon and going all the way up to $14,500 for a 1990 Romanée Conti. Be prepared to encounter prestigious guests; former First Lady Nancy Reagan has even given her name to her favorite Cobb salad. Wherever you sit, inside or on the terrace, The Restaurant is one of our favorite hideaways in town, and the time you spend there is always a true and unique romance.
