meaty meat palace

when i lived in LA i would often drive by this place:

i never stopped there, but i always wondered what kind of establishment it was. i think maybe it was a cobbler. or a graphic design firm.
in a totally unrelated topic (one very close to my heart - literally and figuratively): the eating of MEAT.
i don't do it. and i don't suggest that you do it.
but if you INSIST on doing it, you should do it at my friend cormac's new restaurant: the meaty meat palace. aka MADISON PARK CONSERVATORY.
it's in madison park. all the way down by the water. there used to be a different restaurant there, but that restaurant sucked. like any other restaurant in comparison. the conservatory is really cool. as is the staff. and the food is... to die for. well, the food died for you. like jesus did for us. the food here is like jesus. you can get vegan dishes like foie gras, beef tongue, quail, elk shank, pig fat roasted potatoes, vegetables in meat sauce, meat with meat sauce, meaty meat meat slices wrapped in meat and served with meat sauce... okay, maybe the last few of those aren't on the menu, but the fancy stuff is. and they DO have a couple vegetarian items: there's an emmer dish (i got without cheese) that's fantastic. and there's some salads (i think the croutons in the caesar salad are cooked in anchovy oil) and a lentil and carrot dish. and kale! and if all that doesn't sound delicious, well, you're an idiot.
so, go there. and get fed. and feel full and happy. and then feel bad that all those animals died for your sins.
oh, they also have booze. and who doesn't like booze?
(and if you're lucky, tilson will join you for dinner)
