Serving Spoon.... Those who know, know

Have you ever been to The Serving Spoon???  If the answer is no what are you waiting for? I have been going to this downhome soul food spot on Centinela between Labrea and La Cienga for years, like since the 90's.  If you want to go "where everybody knows your name" Serving spoon is the place to go.  The church folk come out on sunday though so if you are the kind of person who hate lines go in the middle of the week but they close at 3pm so a lunch getaway might be the ideal time.  If you get the Jerry's Special which is one waffle and chicken wing drummettes you will never want Roscoes again. I give Serving Spoon 10 delish stars all day everyday.

The best wings in town right now

Ok so I used to think Hot Wings LA had the best wings. WRONG. KyoChon has the most scrumptious wings ever.  I had the signature wings and the spicy honey wings and potato wedge fries.  Let me tell you that spice is like no other make sure you have a tall glass of water.  For an appetizer I had broccoli salad with sunflower seeds that was really light and tasty.  It seemed to take the food forever to get there but that was because I was hungry. But let me tell you it was worth the wait. You can order online as well if you want to just pick your wings up and go.  There are many locations in Los Angeles and New York. But the quaint little spot I stumbled on was in the mid Wilshire district 3833 west 6th street Los Angeles, ca 90026.  I give it 10 delish stars

Visit a cafe in Los Feliz

I just love Los Feliz for a cute cafe experience on a Sunday.  Just finished brunch with friends at Fred 62 located on Vermont near Hollywood Blvd. . As I was walking to our table my mouth started watering as I looked at eveyones place.  Besides our waitress with the funky attitude the food was great.  I got a pancake that was amazing, egg whites of course and chicken sausage that had so much flavor I wanted to go slap the cook for a job well done. It taste like heaven. I would give it 9 delish stars but because of the waitress I give it 8. Its about the whole experience people train your wait staff.

Best Waffles in Town at Shanghai Reds Sunday Brunch

Im pretty sure most Angelenoes know about Sunday Brunch at Shanghai Reds in the marina.  All you can eat goodness with free flowing champagne what more can you ask for.  My fav is the omelet bar and the "Waffle Bar".  The best belgian waffle in town let me tell you, especially if you drench it in their fresh strawberry sauce and top it off with whipped cream.  A M A Z I N G.  Not to mention the wonderful waterfront view where you can soak in the sun and watch the yachts sail by as you sip your mamosa and enjoy the singing waiter if you are seated outside (those who know, know lol)..  For those who have not been to Shanghai what are you waiting on. There is a pasta bar, fresh crab and shrimp on ice, meat station, hot breakfast station, fresh fruit, sushi, fresh dessert bar and yes they even have a fondue station. You can find all this goodness at 13813 Fiji Way Marina del Rey, CA 90292.  Shanghai Red's Champagne Sunday Brunch is from 9am to 3pm.  I give it 10 delish stars.

Wonderful Egg White Experience at Basix Cafe

So I usually dont eat egg whites.  Something about not seeing the yoak makes me think Im not really eating an egg lol.  But Basix Cafe changed all of that for me.  Today for brunch I had egg whites with spinach and grilled chicken a side of fruit an english muffin and blood orange mimosa.  I didnt know egg whites could have so much flavor.  Since there is less cholestoral anyway I think might take the yoke out of my breakfast permantely. My friend got a bannana pancake with grilled chicken and whatelse egg whites lol. My other firend got a margherita pizza and all three of our plates were empty by the end of brunch.  My friends usually say Im a bird eater but let me tell you I finished my plate today.  Basix Cafe is a quaint little cafe that serves breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner located at 8333 Santa Monica Blvd. in West Hollywood. Basix is open from 7am to 11pm.  I give it 9 delish stars!

Bottega Louie Makes Me Miss New York

Although Bottega Louie is not new to Downtown Los Angeles anymore, I just stumbled onto the spot a few months ago. You can find this spot at 700 Grand Avenue Los Angeles Ca 90017. Let me tell you if you want gourmet food for reasonable prices this is the spot for you. The spot reminds me of a swanky place I might visit in New York's meat packing district. It has a restaurant, a gourmet market, a patisserie and a bar- what more can you ask for in a food establishment. Can you tell I'm excited. You can eat at Bottega Louie monday- friday from 10:30am - 11pm, they're also open on the weekends but the hours are different. My Fav is the Napoli Pizza and all the salads are to die for. Wonderful Decour, Great Food and Reasonable Prices. I give it 10 Delish Stars.
