Come for the Confession, Stay for the Revelry at Chris Breed's Latest Nightlife Hot Spot

The impresario is back after a hiatus inside Pig 'N Whistle.

Matthew Kang is the Lead Editor of Eater LA. He has covered dining, restaurants, food culture, and nightlife in Los Angeles since 2008. He's the host of K-Town, a YouTube series covering Korean food in America, and has been featured in Netflix's Street Food show.

Chris Breed (Cabana Club, Maui & Sons) is back in Hollywood, this time at the swanky new Confession, which officially opens on June 5 inside the Pig 'N Whistle space behind the Egyptian theater.

Breed's Sunset Entertainment Group, which includes principals Alan Hajjar and Robert Kennedy, takes over the historic interior, adding a few clubbier elements like a confession booth (which is really a gussied up Twitter-ready photo booth), state-of-the-art sound system, and updated drink program by Frederic Vial. By day, the place remains Pig 'N Whistle, but at about 9 p.m. on Monday, Friday, and Saturday evenings, it changes up to Confession.

With a cathedral-like interior of hand-carved woodwork, the juxtaposition between late night revelry and the place's "holier" elements probably won't be ironic to anyone hanging out at the tables (don't worry, no religious icons anywhere).
