BIERBEISL, OFF THE MENU: BierBeisl chef Bernhard Mairinger, who also has taken on the role of pastry chef, is making an off-the-menu dessert that you’ll have to ask for by describing it (it doesn’t have a name). The sweet-savory dish is made with fresh ricotta, marinated dried cherries, lightly salted pistachios and crème de chocolate. 9669 Santa Monica Boulevard, Beverly Hills, (310) 271-7274, www.bierbeisl-la.com.

BISHOP’S ROAST AT THE PARISH: The Parish downtown now offers whole roasted chicken -- the Bishop’s Roast -- prepared nightly on its newly installed rotisserie for $75. The rotisserie chicken serves two to four people and is served with country-style ratatouille and a growler of Black Market Contraband Beer. (Meanwhile, chef Casey Lane’s fried chicken is served on Sunday and Monday nights only.) 840 S. Spring St., Los Angeles, (213) 225-2400, www.theparishla.com.
