Some Fashion Industry Love

Did you know Suss Cousins of that fantastic knitwear store on Beverly, Suss Designs is married to Brian Cousins who just happens to be the general manager of Cafe Pinot?

Brian would like to offer your guests and clients a prixe fixe menu with several options that would fit their budget. They would also have the option of eating from the regular menu with 15% off their bill. Further, if a showroom makes a reservation for their client, Cafe Pinot will send out complimentary champagne in the name of the showroom! Nice touch. The best part is that it is SO easy:  Just mention you are coming in for the fashion market!
