How can this place have passed my radar? The Commissary Restaurant at the Line Hotel is a greenhouse with focus on fruit and veggies. Not only a veggie restaurant but good food focused around plants. Farm to table, sustainable. The menu has one pic of the main ingredient and the server has to describe the dish. Awesome! I’m there this weekend, for sure.
Iv’ve been craving this place for months and months now, since I started to follow them on Instagram. And today I finally got to go. I found myself driving along Melrose Ave, and saw it pop up on my right hand side. So I stopped and walked inside of this small joint. One thing I like about L.A is all the joints everywhere. This town is MADE for quick stops, grabbing a bite to go and then eat in the car. I do it all the time, It’s a real time saver. Anyway, this place is all vegan and green. It’s like a food truck but without the truck. They specializes in falafels with different flavors. Falafel sandwiches and falafel plates. So I grabbed a kale falafel in pita with salad and tahini. Oh man, how good was it you think? Yeah, exactly! It was awesome. I wondering what to do now, so I can be close to it every day. They also have fresh coconuts and things. Love it.
Please Fala Bar, open up on the west side as well.
I’ll promise I will be there… everyday?
It’s on Melrose and Genesee. Here are pics of some of the falafel plates, looking good! This place is all organic, locally sourced and gluten free except for the pita.
We went out for some Mexican food last night in Santa Monica, at a place called Mercado. If you like mexican food towards the more stylish and fancy way, you should try this spot. We only did some small plates (since I was already full after the chips and guac,) but I did see servers balancing the most delicious looking dishes in their hands passing our table all the time. Next time I’m gonna try it all with extra everything. You’ll find Mercado in SM, WeHo and Downtown.
