Dakota on The Bridge

HOLLYWOOD: This summer, Dakota at the Hollywood Roosevelt will offer dinner on the bridge overlooking Tropicana Bar and the David Hockney pool. Full dining experience Thu-Sat nights with---brace---access to the Tropicana Bar after. Also note: New(ish) exec chef Jason Johnston streamlined the menu over the last few months, and chef de cuisine Jeremy Strubel recently came on board. Reservations are recommended for the restaurant, required for the bridge experience (323.466.7000). [EaterWire Inbox]

WEHO: Landmark gay bar Micky's burnt down last summer and sat dark for months and months, but we have an update from a reader: "Rebuilding has begun. It seems they are now expanding the bar to include a restaurant and take over the previously unused 2nd floor. Kind of along the lines of what Eleven did. They are doing some major iron work across the front work and it seems like the project is pretty big in scale." [EaterWire Inbox]

WEHO: We heard something was going in the old Splash space on Third and Santa Monica Boulevard, and Blackburn and Sweetzer hears it will be a Panini Cafe. Past commenters suggest a hazmat crew be brought out to de-skeeve the place. [B&S]

SANTA MONICA: The Santa Monica Farmer's Market Gala dinner and auction takes place on May 18 at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel. Local chefs will prepare hors d'ouvres and dessert, Josie LaBalch from Josie will be honored as well as John Tenerelli of Tenerelli Family Orchards. Cocktails start at 6pm. Tickets are $125 per person. More info at www.sfma.net, or call 310.455.0181. [EaterWire Inbox]
