John SkinnerChef Jean Francois Meteigner, who owns and operates La Cachette in Century City, has leased a space in Santa Monica where he plans to open a bistro version of his popular French restaurant this summer.
La Cachette, which is known for being stylish but not snooty, will operate in more than 4,000 square feet indoors and also serve food on a 1,500-square-foot patio.
The restaurant will be located at 1733 Ocean Ave. just north of the Viceroy Hotel and across the street from the Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel.
