Spring has finally sprung and the awful month of March has finally left us. Now that April has arrived it's time to celebrate all things spring, like warm weather, Easter, and Passover, and there's really no better way to celebrate than with good food and even better drinks.

So in order to do this spring celebration right, we suggest you head to LA's newest hot spot, Ox and Son.

Ox and Son is the most recent addition to Fork n' Awesome's hospitality group and is helmed by Executive Chef Brad Miller, so you know it's going to knock your hypothetical socks off. Plus, who doesn't enjoy a good artisanal beer, some specialty wines and a little elevated comfort food? That's right, nobody.

With inventive twists on rustic classics and bold, enticing flavors, this is a culinary experience like you've never encountered. Start out with the delicious Chicken Croquettes or the Prime Beef Tartare and then move onto the Chicken Fried Duck Confit for your main course. There's also a pretty awesome O&S burger if you just feel like sinking your chompers into some nice, thick, juicy meet with amazing cheese and truffle mayo, um yum.

So instead of being stubborn as an ox (pun intended), do yourself a favor and head over to Ox and Son to kick off your spring right.
