Dine with dineLA This Week

For restaurant fans, it’s going to be a wonderful couple of weeks – dine LA starts today and runs through January 31.  For the uninitiated, dineLA is a seasonal restaurant event  with more than 300 participating restaurants across L.A. County.  It offers specially priced prix fixe lunch and dinner menus, showcasing the best of the participating restaurants’ fare. It’s also a charitable event, with $1 of every seated reservation make through the dineLA website, via OpenTable, donated to the Midnight Mission, a vital nonprofit organization that provides food, shelter and essential aid to those experiencing homelessness throughout the city.

For both newcomers and longtime initiates, dine LA can open up wonderful new horizons in local dining.
