It seems only appropriate that Patina, respected for its creativity and quality, has made its new home at a venue as unique as the Frank Gehry-designed Walt Disney Concert Hall. Playful yet a perfectionist, maestro Joachim Splichal collaborates with executive chef Theo Schoenegger in what has become one of Los Angeles’ premier dining destinations.
