Along with her two helpful elves, Owner and Operator Joshua Kopel and Executive Chef Sammy Monsour, Wiggins has transformed Preux & Proper into the unparalleled holly jolly destination for locals and L.A. transplants alike.

“When guests walk through our doors, I want them to get a spark of that childhood holiday excitement and wonder they had growing up; and when they walk out, we want them to leave filled with holiday cheer.”

In the giving holiday spirit, Preux & Proper and SLEIGH BELLS on SPRING will be supporting NKLA, an initiative led by Best Friends Animal Society, bringing together passionate individuals, city shelters and an entire coalition of animal welfare organizations to end the killing of homeless pets in L.A. city shelters.

All month long, guests are encouraged to spread good will by bringing any new and unused pet food, treats, toys, paper towels, blankets, litter, or grooming supplies to Preux & Proper and be gifted a Complimentary Cup of Cheer!

On the thirteenth day of Christmas my true love gave to me the Orange Ginger Duck Confit, comprised of Liberty Farms duck leg, Chinese five spice, Asian pear, mint, baby lettuces, and a benne seed vinaigrette.

The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear,” and this ELF inspired Buddy Breakfast Pasta will have guests singing for more, made with Nate’s nutmeg fettuccine, sage-maple, heirloom squash, hickory smoked hazelnuts, Pecorino, raw duck yolk, and house-cured coppa ham.

Elizabeth Delphin loves a good time! A fun concert, a good dinner out with friends, those weird artsy-fartsy festivals. If she's not at the office or at home, she's likely walking her dog Milo at Runyon Canyon (seriously, sometimes she goes 2-3 times a day).
