Chefs Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo — the Los Angeles culinary duo behind the likes of Jon & Vinny’s, Trois Mec, and Son of a Gun — recently launched brunch service at Animal, their hot spot on Fairfax Avenue in Mid-City West.
Known for its meat-centric dishes and late-night clientele, Animal's foray into brunch maintains all of the edge of its dinner service.
