It was a sad day when Julian Cox departed LA to accept a position in Chicago, leaving behind is magnum opus, The Fiscal Agent. Well now, the Studio City bar above Barrel & Ashes has a new man in charge, Chris Amirault.
Amirault has kept himself busy over the past few years under the tutelage of Julian Cox. After working at Eveleigh, Chris opened Harlowe before moving on to Clifton's Cafeteria. Now at The Fiscal Agent, Amirault is working with Sprout Group's Director of Beverage Operations Nick Meyer to roll out new cocktails weekly, with a spring menu coming soon.
