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.

Unique LA August 1, 2011

Earlier today, Jennifer and I did a little bit of shopping at the Unique LA event held at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. The event features various local designers in fashion, jewelry, crafts and even gourmet sweets. I bought a few greeting cards, beauty scrubs and candies, and also scored a few free tickets to the OC Fair.

Mango-Passion Caramels from Le Bon Garcon

Hand Candies - Sea salt scrubs for the hands and arms

Angry Birds - I'm not really sure what these are made of, but I don't they are edible. I could be wrong though.

Chicken or More Angry Birds?

My Free OC Fair Tickets

Although the space was pretty big and open, it still felt a little warm and stuffy, which somehow drove my allergies a little overboard. I hope that at the next Unique LA event I’ll be able to do a little bit more shopping (allergy free).
