HappiSongs becomes Goat, not Wyeth

We agree that Wyeth didn't seem like a great name for a restaurant. Now UrbanDaddy lets us know that Steven Arroyo's revamped HappiSongs will become Goat. Is that better? Not sure yet. Flash-Fried Goat Cheese and Figs with Brown Butter? That sounds pretty good. Goat Confit with Warm French Bread? Not so sure. Chef is Robert Luna. Opens Friday -- lunch and dinner seven days a week!
Goat
460 S. La Brea Ave. 323-936-7622

p.s. If you're not familiar with UrbanDaddy, it's a daily email tipsheet in the vein of Daily Candy, but more for cool young guys (not for dads necessarily). How is it different from Thrillist? Less dude, more urbane, maybe?

  2. Seriously, Goat? Unless they're going to be serving up a lot of Chevre or Bil Tfeen, I'm not sure this is an improvement.

    I thought the issue with Happi Songs was location more than concept. Now I'm fearing that location and concept are equally iffy...

    Jill, the issue with Happi Song was not location, it was the disinterested wait staff and the equally disinterested kitchen staff -- menu items frequently unavailable.
