Inside LA’s Hinterland + How To Make Their Simple Winter Pickles

It's not unusual for actors and musicians to open restaurants here in LA. Neither is it unusual for these hotspots to be design-heavy, food light. When we popped in to Hinterland here in Santa Monica for the first time last year, we were thrilled to discover that this was not that kind of place - it's mouth-watering menu and show-stopping dishes converted us to neighborhood regulars on the spot. Hinterland, owned in part by Joe Jonas, opened quietly last year on a cozy stretch on Main Street. The vibe of the place is Brooklyn meets Venice - sleek, but effortless industrial style. And the menu? We were impressed with an impeccable greek octopus salad among several entrees we finished down to the bone. One of our favorite new casual hangs through the year, we suggest Los Angelenos book casual weekend get-togethers here for either brunch or early dinner - enjoy the people-watching along the sidewalk, dip into their great wine list and feel like a home-grown local. Hinterland makes it's own selected of pickled veggies in house and we asked chef Max DiMare to share this recipe. Fermented veggies make an excellent healthy addition to any party spread or just to mix it up at family dinner... [olists num=1][olists num=2]
