Sweet Butter Toast

Hmm…food, travel, books, and just random stuff that I like.

Artisan House December 8, 2011

On Sunday, Jen, Eloise and I had brunch at Artisan House in downtown LA. They are currently in their soft opening phase, so getting the food on the table was a little on the slow side which I’m sure they will rectify by the time of their grand opening (this Thursday I think?) comes around. Let’s hope. Artisan House also has a full bar and a deli/market on the other side of the restaurant where one can order sandwiches and do some shopping for teas, wines and other little bites. I wonder what’s on their dinner menu. I guess I’m going to have to go back to find out.

After brunch we went to the UniqueLA event at California Mart. I also met up with my friend Lena there. She was starving and decided to order the pulled pork sliders from Tiara Cafe. Her sliders looked really good and she had later confirmed with me that it was indeed quite delicious.

Last Saturday, Tina treated me to an early birthday dinner at Izaka-ya by Katsu-ya in Manhattan Beach. Now I think I might in be love with their crispy rice with spicy tuna dish. Is that weird? I mean it really is just rice and tuna right? Oh but it’s so addictingly (is that a word?) delicious.

Of course, the other dishes that we ordered were also good. Not quite as memorable as the dish above, but still good.
