Stefan's on Montana Opening Monday, Café de Camacho and Yojie Debut, MORE

SANTA MONICA— Contrary to popular belief, Stefan's on Montana is not open yet. Just testing out the waters and training staff, a full debut comes Monday. The casual restaurant does not have a liquor license so BYOB is encouraged ($10), and will serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Menu items are inspired by his time spent in Switzerland and the dinner menu boasts a variety of fondues. [EaterWire]

DOWNTOWN— Blogdowntown shares news on two week old coffee hub Café de Camacho. Right now the eatery serves a menu of hot chocolates, pastries, and pre-made salads and sandwiches, and eventually plans to hold poetry readings and other events. [blogdowntown]

DOWNTOWN— One more opener to round out the day which also involves fondue. Urban Daddy brings word of new sushi-less DIY eatery Yojie (pictured above). Here, it's all about shabu-shabu, fondue, and "Japanese floats" made from rice soda and ice cream. [UD]

SANTA MONICA— From 6:30-9PM Thursday and Friday night La Cachette Bistro will offer a free Macallan 18 year single malt scotch tasting. No reservation necessary. [EaterWire]
