Allyson, I think the problem with the "kosher selection" thing is the strictness of the rule - unless they're using special cookware, special plates, special cutlery and can guarantee that their meat never touches their milk, it's a minefield. The first time we at Nate and Als, they brought me out this amazing pastrami sandwich and I was crooning over it, and thinking wow, a kosher restaurant in Beverly Hills! And then the waitress cruised by and dropped a little dish of butter pats next to me.
That put the kibosh on the kosher, alas. I just wish they were, because their food is so. damned. good. And the portions would feed the Sixth Fleet. Same with Jerry's.
Reminds me, I still need a set of cutlery and a nice little "not used for anything but Nilly so long as Nilly's here" pot. I love living within walking distance of three stores that specialise in restaurant supplies for Chinatown at whimper-low prices.
