POUR IT UP: NYE PARTIES, LIBATIONS AND DELICIOUS FEASTS

It’s that time of year again – when we Angelenos freak out about the weather and realize we’ve only got three weeks to achieve the new years resolutions we completely forgot about once our post-NYE hangovers hit. But never fear, with each new year comes a fresh opportunity to make resolutions-we-won’t-keep. So, let’s toast to 2014 the only way we know how: by eating, drinking and partying to our hearts delight. Scope our list below to pick your poison.
