New French-Thai Restaurant Coming to Abbot Kinney

Grid View

By now, world travelers and local Angelenos know that Abbot Kinney is one of the coolest streets in the country. The stretch between Main Street and Venice Boulevard is famous for its quirky shops, Gjelina and long-standing restaurants like Joe's. But with rents rising, even the south end of the strip is turning a corner. Soon to open inside the strip mall on the corner of Washington and Abbot Kinney is Pichet, a new Thai restaurant with French influences. This space used to be Venetian Grill, but is now under construction and may open as soon as next month. [EaterWire]
