AOC is a restaurant that had been on my "To-Dine" list from the moment opened in LA. However, it took me this long to finally get over there. The restaurant has a nice setup with bar-seating at either the wine bar or the cheese bar, and regular seating in a fairly small dining room. I enjoyed the meal, I enjoyed the cheese, and I enjoyed the wine. But the thing that made my head spin faster than the Rock Steady Crew was the tiny silver saucer of bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with parmesan cheese. Now that I'm comfortbale with bacon-wrapping, I want to make these at home.
