Lunch at Alcove Cafe

Mar 6, 2022Lifestyle, Travel

12.26.2021 — The sun finally came out in Los Angeles. We went for a long walk down to Ventura Boulevard and stopped for a late lunch at Alcove Cafe. I ordered the pan roasted salmon salad and it was probably the best salad I’ve had in my mini food tour of Los Angeles so far. Ian’s avocado toast and poached egg was also delicious. For drinks, I had the fresh squeezed grapefruit juice and Ian got a latte.
