Busser

James Beard award winning duo Chef April Bloomfield and Restauranteur Ken Friedman have arrived in Southern California.

Housed in the former iconic Spanish Shopping Court on Sunset Boulevard, this will be the duo's first Los Angeles outpost, and it represents a concerted effort to translate their lauded talents to a brand new environment. Just as their NYC-based restaurants are imbued with the culture and feel of the vibrant city that surrounds them, so too will the Hearth & Hound reflect the casual sophistication of LA.
