Why It's Rainy Day-Worthy: In addition to its truly outstanding cuisine, this popular seafood restaurant from Vinny Dotolo and Jon Shook of Animal knows how to warm its patrons up when the weather outside is frightful (by L.A. standards) with an array of delectable hot cocktails. We fancy many of their piping concoctions, but our faves include the classic and relaxing chamomile hot toddy or the creamy and delicious hot buttered rum, made from smooth anejo rum, spiced butter, clove syrup, and a sprinkle of nutmeg to top it off.
