Atticus's First Number

Atticus got his first digits tonight.

I had been driving home from work when I heard a restaurant review on NPR by Jonathan Gold, Pulitzer Prize winning food critic from the LA Weekly. He reviewed a new restaurant in Culver City called the A Frame. I called Robby up & we decided to check it out. The chef also started the phenomenal chain of Kogi trucks, which are famous for its Korean tacos. The food at A Frame was delicious: soft crab cakes, grilled lamp chops, & a lemongrass clam chowder. We also met the chef/owner & got to compliment on the food.

The hostess of the restaurant was so enamored by the Boy that she volunteered to babysit him & gave us her number. She carried him for a bit while we finished our dessert & told Robby that she lived at an ashram in India with her hippy mom when she was a child. Cool stuff. We're glad we got a chance to enjoy this restaurant before it gets pretentious.
