WHY I LOVE LA

Because you never know who will be seated next to you at the lunch counter, when your cousin invites you for Super Sunday Splurge Lunch at Mozza, Mario Batali's new LA venture with Nancy Silverton.


your napkin and silverware are neatly tucked inside this paper bag!


look! it's Harvey Keith!


in case you don't recognize him, here he is in 1976. how much do I love that this is in his wallet? lots!


the yummy goat cheese, leek and seared bacon pizza.


our cute waiter.


my favorite shot.


we definitely left feeling, okay!

PS - make reservations if you want a table (you'll need them) or be like us and take your chances at the counter. we didn't have to wait at all! and ask about the pizza secret.
