Then there was the strange interlude when it was going to become Hora Bohemian Bistro. Owners Ray and Frank had been planning another revamp into the Rosemary Cafe but decided to [...]

5 excellent reasons to visit Berlin…or Berlin Currywurst in Silver Lake

Berlin’s Cafe Anna Blume: a lovely spot to while away the morning I wasn’t sure what to expect from eating in Berlin for two weeks while working at the Berlin Film Festival.

Guisados: A suave and saucy rejoinder to the grilled meat taco

Tacos are described on the blackboard menu at Guisados in Boyle Heights A caramelized-around-the-edges al pastor taco from a pineapple-topped spit on the street, or a deeply beefy carne asada taco from Tacos El Poblano in Tijuana — they’re pretty much the platonic ideal of of street food, and the one single item that converted [...]

Mary’s Market: lunch with ladies, men and dogs of the canyon

Mary’s first opened in 1922 — it’s now owned by Carolyn.  It’s not easy to find a place close to L.A. where you really feel like you’re not in the middle of the city anymore. Froggy’s in Topanga Canyon, maybe, or the Rock Store way out on Mulholland. Too far to drive? Just a few [...]
