Laurel Tavern
11938 Ventura Blvd, Studio City; 818.506.0777
This leather-padded pub hits you with a pincer move of gourmet comfort, with 10 craft beers on tap (Bayhawk Honey Blonde, PranQster Golden Ale), and upscale snacks that'll be similar to the just-launched menu at brother establishment Library Bar: a pork belly sandwich w/ housemade pickles, a tillamook cheddar burger, and twice-fried steak fries drizzled with pork fat -- the culinary equivalent of Pee-Wee's death sentence, "First we're gonna hang him, then we're gonna kill him".
The menu is still under wraps, but to get a taste, ###here's what they're serving at Library###3262popupa.jpg###
