"Superstar chef José Andrés fulfilled his decades-long dream of opening a restaurant inside downtown’s historic Old Post Office Pavilion in 2023. His Beverly Hills-born Bazaar checked into the newly minted Waldorf Astoria with a parade of avant-garde delights like “Jose” tacos topped with ibérico ham, gold leaf, and caviar; tortilla de papatas “new way” topped with potato foam; Chinese steamed buns with pork belly; and bite-sized “cotton candy foie gras” made famous in LA.

The two-level stunner puts a glossy jamón carving station on full display upon entry alongside dry-aged smoked fish and poultry." - Tierney Plumb
