Tiato Garden Market Cafe Opens For Weekend Brunch

About a month ago, a big cafe with a big patio – thankfully with the charm to match – opened for business behind MTV Networks in Santa Monica. And this past weekend, the An group (The Crustacean) opened up their garden cafe for service on Saturdays and Sundays to feature a brand new brunch menu. [...]

The Weekend Brunch At Malo

There’s another brunch option in town – and it’s at Malo in Silver Lake. If tequila cocktails with your eggy entree and sides sound like a choice accompaniment, this brunch will be worth your trek. For one, Malo has that spicy burnt habanero salsa that always does a solid for your pre-appetizer chip indulgence. (Because [...]

Brunch at The Hollywood Corner: For The Locals

It was a late Sunday morning when I visited the Hollywood Corner for brunch – a lucky, not omnicient, decision though I’d be negligent if I failed to disclose the decision was influenced by the bottomless mimosas (available during Sunday brunch $14.95). Breakfast will keep your bubbly company, however, since it’s served until 3 PM. The good news [...]

Delphine at The W Now Open For Weekend Brunch

Now’s this could be your legit excuse to have brunch in a hotel. After all, The W Hollywood is still new and now, they’re serving a weekend brunch. And let’s face it, Delphine‘s space is one-of-a-kind. The subtle back-lighting over bookshelves and aquamarine hues, white flourishes and matching crown moldings are calming; it’s up to [...]

The Terrace at Langham Pasadena Chinese New Year Brunch

Arguably the location of the best Chinese food on the West Coast, San Gabriel Valley neighbors Pasadena. Sometimes, though, you’re just in the mood for something a tad more posh, like cushioned wicker chairs with a garden view. Or a cheese plate. Or oysters on the half-shell. Or interesting small plates. Sometimes you’re just in the [...]

Allston Yacht Club: Cure For The Eastsider’s Hangover

I’ve always wondered about the “sceney” brunch places around LA. There’s inevitably a patio, 5 dressed-up chihuahuas around said patio and a long wait for food. The pretty people make a day of it but let’s be real – sometimes you just really want a solid, no-nonsense brunch without spending too much more money the [...]

Dakota Sunday Jazz Brunch Goes Bottomless at The Roosevelt

Photo credit to Classicbeauty92 on Flickr Move over, BoHo. Dakota Chop House at The Roosevelt is stepping up their daytime Sunday Hollywood brunch game starting tomorrow with a new menu and optional bottomless Bloody Mary or bubbly menu. To grease the deal even more, they’re including the following: One complimentary signature coffee drink from our [...]

Brunch Goes Hearty on Rush Street

My first experience at Rush Street plodded along rather ill-informedly. It was the most honest visit of any kind – on my own dime and to meet a girlfriend over lunch. I ordered the salad. Big mistake. I had no idea at the time that the restaurant was a reference to the cultural and historic [...]

Brunch in Brentwood at Tavern

I’ll be the first to admit I’m not exactly a Westside girl (I blame overload of undergraduate memories in Westwood) but if it’s a sure thing, it’s well worth it for me to make the drive in that direction. You can call it a sure thing because while not new, Tavern is Suzanne Goin and [...]

Brunch: It’s What’s For Dinner At La Grande Orange

Lemon Ricotta Hotcakes How many times have we all visited a diner in the wee morning hours with the express intent of soaking up the previous night’s libations? Never mind that it was actually just hours before – the reason we order breakfast foods is at least partly because we can. Oh, you rebel, you. [...]
