COLE'S RESTAURANT -- DOWNTOWN LA -- PART 2

ORIGINATORS OF THE FRENCH DIP



Cole's at dinner time -- they serve till 10 p.m. -- is best spent prepping for that big (5.5 ounces) French Dip with one of the classic cocktails.


An Old Fashioned has bourbon, angostura bitters, sugar cube, stirred with hand cut ice rock and luxardo cherry.

The Original Martinez features genever, dolin sweet vermouth, orange curacao, angostura bitters and luxardo cherry.

The Red Car Named Desire contains rye whiskey, cynar, luxardo and maurin liqueur.

The Red Car takes its name from the welcoming 40-foot mahogany Red Car Bar, preserved in the recent restoration of the cherished landmark.

The restoration received the Los Angeles Conservancy’s coveted Preservation Award recognizing outstanding achievement in the field of historic preservation.

Housed in the Pacific Electric building, Cole’s, features original glass lighting, penny tile floors and historic photos.

Cole's is at 118 E. 6th Street, the corner of Main and 6th.
