If you're gallery hopping in Los Angeles's buzzy Melrose Hill neighbourhood, take a moment between all the blue chip art to pop by Bar Etoile. The new restaurant—a project of Jill Bernheimer (you'll know her from the natural wine shop Domaine LA) along with partner Julian Kurland—offers a delightfully modern take on a classic French bistro that combines 'if-you-know-you-know' art world references with a distinctly Angeleno vibe.
