Dining room at Windows Lounge, Los Angeles, CAThe bar at the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills is a true Los Angeles classic, always packed with a stylish clientele. It is in such demand that a large outdoor patio, surrounded by trees and flowers, with two custom iron cabanas, has been added. The interior has been renovated, with the green onyx fireplace as the masterpiece, along with wood wine cabinets. Of course, the drinks are a large part of the ambience, and there’s live music from Thursday to Sunday. The cocktail list is very long, but after eight pages you’ll finally discover the menus created by chef Ashley James. The “World of Plates” menu, served after 5 p.m., is the most interesting; it encompasses James’ travels and offers dishes from four different continents. We tried many of them and they’re all good; just choose according to your appetite. Asian flavors come in the form of crispy Vietnamese crab nem rolls, sesame chili chicken, crispy sushi rice and spicy ahi tartare; while the European selections are represented by roasted grapes with Cabrales cheese, pepperoni, kalamata olives and tomato flatbread. If you like foie gras, the foie gras and duck meatballs with Bing cherries in a red wine sauce is a must. Another must-have is what James likes to call “real potato fries” accompanying the grilled cheese sandwich of the North America section. Move south with the Don Julio tequila shrimp, the spicy pulled chicken quesadillas or the crab pico de gallo tostaditas. From the other menu, served all day, you may enjoy spicy tuna hand rolls, Chinese chicken salad, mahi mahi tacos or crispy calamari. More fun is in store with sweets like the cheesecake lollipops wrapped in chocolate, the baby banana split gelato sampler or the warm house-made donuts.
