Acclaimed chef Govind Armstrong has put together a menu specifically for the LA Scotch Club’s whisky tasting. Chef Govind has worked in restaurants around the world and is the author of Small Bites, Big Nights: Seductive Little Plates for Intimate Occasions and Lavish Parties.  He has appeared often on television, including as a guest judge on Top Chef.   Willie Jane, which Govind co-owns with restauranteur Brad Johnson, specializes in Lowland Southern cuisine blended with California’s love of elite farm products.  Despite their fantastic menu, Chef Govind has planned something special for this evening:
