If you follow my Blog you will notice that I enjoy trying unique restaurants. One of my current favorites is Bistro 31 in Santa Monica. It is run by the International Culinary students at The Art Institute of California. The students cook, serve and run the front of house. The food is very good and the prices are quite reasonable. The emphasis is clearly on quality and not quantity. The servings are small and there are not many choices. Personally, I prefer small amounts of good food rather than huge amounts of mediocre food. They do not serve alcohol but you may bring your own wine. Their schedule is determined by the school calendar. They are currently open for lunch and dinner on Tuesday - Thursday. The restaurant is just off 31st Street and Ocean Park. There is lot parking and they validate. Pryor Events thinks Bistro 31 is wonderful! View their site at http://www.bistro31.com
