The run-up to Christmas day can be overwhelming, so why not take out the biggest challenge of the day and try dining out instead!
Los Angeles has plenty of option for dining out where family squabbles, turkey cooking and washing up, will soon be but a distant memory.
Take your pick from traditional menus to something totally different.
