Start your evening with a delectable meal of fine Mexican cuisine at Frida Restaurant. FRIDA emulates the cooking and traditions of the central valley of Mexico. It is from here where its founder was born and raised, and where he learned and obtained an appreciation of the spices, sauces and condiments that form the basis of traditional Mexican cuisine. Choose from its Beverly Hills, Glendale, Santa Monica or Chula Vista locations. ($100 gift certificate)
