Dinette in Echo Park

At the corner of Sunset and Echo Park next to a 98 cent store sits the coolest window in town. I'm of course talking about Dinette, the newest trendy spot from Cafe Stella owner Gareth Kantner. This has became my favorite little spot on my commute every morning to dtla. I'm a big fan of the waffles, breakfast pizza and tartines. The coffee is from Intelligentsia and they just started carrying batch brew coffee in case you wanted more than a macchiato. Stick to the week days since the line is always crazy on tje weekends.

Pine State Biscuits

While most of my posts are about my food experiences in Los Angeles I've had plenty of foodie adventures in other places. Portland Oregon is one of my favorite food cities and any chance I get to visit I take. Pine State Biscuits started out of a house on the Northeast side of town. My first experience at Pine State came early in the morning and after a very long bus ride. My local connection and best friend Sean picked me up and brought me to Pine State. He told me since it was my first visit I had to order the Reggie . What's the Reggie you ask? This might be the most frequently asked question in Portland. Cut a fresh baked biscuit down the middle, top with a fried chicken breast some bacon and smother with cheddar cheese and gravy. Make it a deluxe with an egg on top.
