""In very Tatiana fashion, just within a few months, she was extremely knowledgeable, constantly learning, and just made a huge career shift,""
""Wilde's really feels like the marriage of those versions and us both pushing each other to make something different and better,""
""I think when I started, I wanted something daytime and cafe, which, ultimately, when I dug deep, I think was a fear of not being able to succeed in a dinner space.""
Wilde's opened October 30 on Hillhurst in Los Feliz as a British-tinged neighborhood bistro serving natural wines, Welsh rarebit, and meat pie in the evening. Founders Natasha Price and Tatiana Ettensberger have been lifelong friends who combined culinary and wine expertise to create the venue. Price began cooking professionally at 18 and served as chef de cuisine at Mina's in New York; Ettensberger shifted into wine after college and worked as general manager and wine buyer at Cafe Triste. The concept merged an initial daytime cafe idea with a natural wine bar into a single restaurant. Price's English roots inform the menu interpreted through California ingredients, and daytime sausage rolls and pastries will be added soon.
