Restaurant Sportlight: Larchmont Bungalow

Hi Foodies!!

I had the ultimate brunch today at Larchmont Bungalow and had to share with you.  It was beyond amazing and those of you who follow my blog know how much I love brunch!  If you ever find yourself in West Hollywood and looking for a cafe that serves up a magical brunch I whole-heartedly recommend Larchmont Bungalow.  Although they are known for their red and blue velvet pancakes, I decided to go with the Strawberry Tequila French Toast and I'm so glad I did.  I paired it with an iced coffee for my daily caffeine fix and it was perfect.  Ch-ch-check it out below.

Brunching Around

Brunch, that awkward time of the day that falls between breakfast and lunch.  In my small hometown of Penngrove, CA “brunching” is non-existent.  When I moved to Los Angeles a few years back, I was introduced to a whole new dinning sub-culture: brunching.  As an avid foodie and morning go-getter I’ve enjoyed hopping from place to place, trying the tantalizing tastes of many California brunching destinations.

I’ve included 5 of my go-to brunching spots, as well as my super simple DIY brunch go-to. 

1. Urth Caffé – Los Angeles, Calif.  

2. Alcove Café & Bakery – Los Angeles, Calif.

3. Starling Diner – Long Beach, Calif.

4. Tartine – San Francisco, Calif.

5. The Tea Room – Petaluma, Calif.
