One of my favorite breakfast spots in LA! Luckily for us, it's just a 10 minute drive from Echo Park! Must try the Crispy Rice Bowl, but don't sleep on the Famed Ricotta Toast!

My go-to spot of organic produce, juices and coffee. A little on the pricer end, but that's why this is one of LA's most premier grocers!

If you are near The Grove, in Downtown, or by the beach in Santa Monica, you MUST stop by Mendocino Farms. Freshest, California fare with an easy, fast-casual layout. Don't sleep on the Avocado Quinoa Superfood Salad or the "Not so Fried" Chicken Sandwich.

This is NOT in the East side, but if you do make it more west, take a drive around the swanky neighborhood of the Bird Streets. You may come across private roads, but even the views from outside the properties are unreal!
