Apparently Hollywood has become the city that never sleeps, so when Kitchen 24 opened up last month, we were more than a little excited.

The menu – breakfast to dinner and late night – is sure to fulfill any craving. Executive Chef David Rosenberger takes American Diner Classics to a new level with items like…

Soda Jerk: A scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream floating on top of a shot of Amaretto and Dark CrËme de Cacao in a malt glass.

Or, Smac and Cheese: Elbow Macaroni and a Three Cheese Blend of Cheddar, Mascarpone and Smoked GruyËre with Peas and a Basil Herb Crust.

Cool decor also takes this 24 diner up a notch in our book. We always feel swankier stuffing our faces at 3 A.M. in white vinyl booths with designer chandeliers. Needless to say, if the weekend takes us to Hollywood… it’ll also be taking us to Kitchen 24.
