   ya know.. LAST year… we got turned away twice for late dessert-only seating…

   Fraiche was near the pinnacle of the L.A. dining scene last year after their appearance in the NY Times, but even popular restaurants have to become more accommodating to keep pace in this economy.

   I just love how proud restaurants are getting humbled. Craft “turns” into Craftbar (really just small plates from the scraps of the main restaurant, come on). Fraiche beckons happy hour revelers. What’s next, $20 three course tasting menus? (..xiomara anyone?..)
