Following the beautiful Marilyn Monroe Memorial in Westwood yesterday MM colleagues - Academy Award winner George Chakiris and popular 1950s actress Kathleen Hughes joined myself and Marilyn Remembered president Greg Schreiner at the wonderful new Bourbon DTLA bar restaurant for an outstanding dinner prepared by talented Presidential Chef Kurt Ehrlich. What a memorable delicious fine feast we had! Joining us in spirit was Kathleen's husband - the late great Stanley Rubin who produced "River of No Return" one of my favorite MM films. Our food was amazing as was the prompt friendly service. Bourbon DTLA is located in the heart of the L.A. Arts District at 734 E. Third Street. Entrees are very affordable, servings are generous and range from $10 to $35. Diners can enjoy classic drinks from the well stocked bar. I've enjoyed Chef Kurt's delicious food for years at super publicist Roger Neal's A-List Oscar Suites so when I was invited to his newest venture I knew the food would be excellent & it was! We started the evening with hot fresh delicious garlic bread followed by a superb grand sized salad nicioise with tender salmon on a bed of organic salad. It was soooo good! Next up was the sumptuous grilled skinless chicken accompanied by tasty hot lemon shrimp, a medley of tender sauteed vegetables and a mouth watering well seasoned baked potato. The pasta prima vera tasted as good as it looked as were the wonderful desserts to conclude the delicious gourmet meal. I highly recommend Bourbon DTLA! Hours of operation are Dinner Tuesday - Sunday 4-10pm, Happy Hour Tuesday - Saturday 4-7pm & Sunday Brunch 11am - 3pm. There is live jazz and R&B five nights a week and comedy on Sunday nights. For more information please call 213 680 3003 or email info@bourbondtla.com - Bon Appetit! Thank you to owner Chris Ceballos, celebrity chef Kurt Ehrlich, publicist Roger Neal and everyone at Bourbon DTLA for making our visit so delicious, happy & memorable... My tastebuds are still singing! Report by Harrison Held.
