I’ve often felt that the true test of a restaurant’s design is not so much how the space looks but how you feel sitting in it. While a great meal these days still means good food and fine wine, today more than ever, it may be comfort food or fusion cuisine served in an environment filled with denim and sneakers. So the million-dollar question for the adventurous chef is, Can you create a high-end tour de force that will nonetheless be appealing in a casual world?

In this issue: Seattle, Oahu, London, and Los Angeles…Eat: A gelato master lands in L.A. Frozen treats in Los Angeles are usually zero-calories, but not at the Gelato Bar in Studio City. Made fresh daily, flavors range from traditional chocolate chip to original combinations like the Veneziana, with ribbons of bittersweet chocolate and candied orange. Sorbetto, savory and sweet snacks, espresso, and roasted coffees round out the menu. Everything about the place is authentically Italian, from the bar to the gelato case to the Venetian gelato master turning out the fine flavors. 4342 1/2 Tujunga Avenue, Studio City.

This recipe's a family favorite from my Auntie Delores. It's actually a version of bibingka, a Pilipino dessert. I call it coconut cake, because I don't know how to translate "bibingka" into French, and Laurent and I mostly speak French. At home we simply cut it into squares. For a fancy restaurant-style presentation, you can cut it into various shapes using cookie cutters. If you want to cut out shapes, lining the cake pan with parchment paper will make it easier to unmold the cake. Packages of coconut are usually 14 ounces, but an ounce or two more or less won't make a difference. -

Now that I'm married to a chef (Laurent Gras), the inevitable question from friends is, "What do you cook for your husband when he's such a whiz in the kitchen?" Well, I always joke that I'm the Sunday sous-chef, as I'm the one making supper on the day of rest. Here's a roast chicken recipe of mine that seems to meet with his approval.
