Of course, the news has just come out that Yard is leaving Spago after 20 years to open her own bakery in Culver City. She'll remain on staff through mid-February, when Della Gossett will take over. Gossett, with years as Charlie Trotter's pastry chef, is sure to eventually put her own mark on Spago's dessert menu, though Yard says she will be working closely with Gossett on the transition and, "as with all Spago menus, desserts will be based on what is seasonal."
For now, the last months of Yard's desserts are just another reason to visit Spago promptly. Go now, while the excitement of this new incarnation is still fresh. Go to revel in the outrageous decadence of a restaurant that pampers customers in the old-school style, without feeling stodgy in the slightest. Spend a fortune on the priciest items and the fantastic wine list, or don't — nibbles at the bar, or at one of the cocktail tables, are just as fun as the grandeur of the full experience. But there is, without question, as much reason to go to Spago now as there ever was.
