Discover the farm-to-table gem of a restaurant, Gjelina, on Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice.  According to the LA Times ... "This is a place where everything is meant to be shared. Gjelina, named for owner Fran Camaj's mother, opened on the sly in July and has been packed ever since. It has everything you could want in a casual restaurant -- a smart seasonal menu, great atmosphere, high energy and an enthralling mix of people, along with a young chef-partner who can turn out delicious food, seemingly effortlessly. He's Travis Letts, who made a splash as the opening chef at NineThirty in the W hotel in Westwood and has been working most recently as a private chef."
