Early Meal at Malibu Pier Restaurant; Mod Pizza in NoHo

MALIBU— Malibu Pier Restaurant & Bar isn't scheduled to open until April, but if you're looking for an early seat in the house consider a pop-up, Fork Knife Mic, taking place at the restaurant on March 23. Malibu Pier chef Jason Fullilove, Kris Morningstar (Ray's & Shark Bar), Brendan Collins (Larry's & Waterloo & City) and Phillip Lee (Scratch Bar) will each contribute two courses and the whole meal is priced at just $45 a head, which is a total steal. And instead of Pandora picking tracks, DJ Brutha Gimel will spin, with a performance by actress Amaris Dupree. [ELA]
