New York Times Mentions Us!

When we got back from Japan, Jay at Campanile mentioned that Cathy and Cliff were mentioned in an article in the New York Times. We didn't know anything about it. We found the article and were surprised to read about ourselves.

Here is the link to the full New York Times Article (Sunday Magazine Nov. 13, 2005)
The Way We Eat: Scene Stealer

It was very nice for Lucques to mention us.

Here part of the article.

The Way We Eat: Scene Stealer
By CHRISTINE MUHLKE

L.A. power scenes are not created equal. Sunday nights at Lucques on Melrose belong to Suzanne Goin's slowed-down suppers. Here, along the curled-up banquettes set in Harold Lloyd's former carriage house, you'll find the likes of Tom Ford, Reese Witherspoon, the Gyllenhaal family and Cliff Meyer and Cathy Root (noncelebs who have come every Sunday since the restaurant opened in 1998) recharging with homey-elegant dishes like grilled pork confit with rice soubise and figs, and olive-oil cake with candied tangerines. This set three-course menu is Goin's way of stretching after a long week. "It's more lighthearted and off the cuff," she explained.
