DTLA Outing

L.A. is definitely a place we venture to often. Last week we made this trip mostly for Salt & Straw's honey lavender ice cream that we've been craving for too long since our road trip we did to Oregon 2 years ago. It was as amazing as I remembered it. There were also many ice cream pictures being taken. My mom laughing at me: "I've never taken so many pictures of ice cream before!" Thank you mother for putting up with my picture taking and taking them as I instruct you to. She is very patient with me. Salt & Straw is how we ended our L.A. day, and what a perfect way to end it! I kind of wish I tried some of their other May flower flavors but I was too distracted having honey lavender on my mind. We also brought back home 2 more pints.

So I guess I'm kind telling you about our day backwards because I naturally started talking about the ice cream first. Well, before Salt & Straw we made a stop (or 3 hours) at The Last Bookstore. I was really bummed that I didn't get many good pictures in there because the lighting was horrible. I kept trying to fix the lighting on the camera but it wouldn't do. I was only able to find one good spot to take a picture in where there were a lot of windows. I've heard so much about this place but had never been until last week and thought it was pretty cool.

And a place we love going to for breakfast is Egg Slut. So good! I usually get the turkey bacon egg sandwich but this time I decided to try The Slut which is a coddled egg topped over a potato purée, poached in a cute glass jar with a mini baguette. It was so delicious I've been craving it every day for breakfast since I had it last week. I'm definitely going to get it again next time.
