Restaurant : Jar

In a book, a character is brought a take-out meal from just another restaurant. The character states that the pot roast is so good it has to be from a notable restaurant, to which the other character replies that the restaurant is Jar (just another restaurant). I did a check online and one of the first reviews mentioned the pot roast, so it seems to be a real LA restaurant. The reviews are mixed but it has a high rating and the author thought it worth plugging in a book. I would check it out if I still lived on Signal Hill.

We’ve wanted to go there but the reservations are months away, and it’s rather expensive.
The head chef / owner was on celebrity Top Chef last year, and if I recall correctly, she did very well on the show.
Ahh… her name is Suzanne Tracht, and there’s an article about her famous pot roast at the WSJ http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123819733281561707.html
