Hundreds of restaurants. Twelve days. Lunch menus are $15, $20 or $25; dinners $25, $35 or $45. The impetus behind dineLA's Restaurant Week is “showcasing Los Angeles as a premier dining destination and highlighting the diversity of culinary experiences L.A. has to offer.” Didn't we already know that? So when you're looking over the list of restaurants, let's all agree to skip our faves and try someplace new, even if that means driving to Manhattan Beach. Or — shudder of shudders–Redondo Beach. What can we say, except pace yourself? Jan. 21-Feb. 1; discoverlosangeles.com/dineLA.
