LA Favorites (in no particular order) #1:

I was inspired by Los Angeles Magazine's "The 64 Greatest Things About LA" article, and I decided to start an ongoing project of my own, documenting MY favorite things about LA. I'm not going to trouble myself with ranking things, so the posts will be in no particular order - just what I've been able to grab as I go (one thing I DON'T like about LA is how it seems like no one wants you taking pictures of anything - except actors who are trying to get publicity...). So, here's my first post:

M Cafe de Chaya: "featuring contemporary macrobiotic cuisine, using whole, natural foods prepared daily, with an emphasis on great taste." They are in West Hollywood on the corner of Melrose and La Brea. I love their California Club sandwich with its tempeh "bacon". They serve really excellent and interesting dishes, and great desserts!
