Greater Los Angeles Edition.

LA is ginormous but we take pride in trying to explore every nook and cranny it has to offer. In fact, our Sunday tradition is to try a new coffee shop or walk/hike a new neighbourhood with Lantern. We’ve become LA’s overly qualified coffee experts and at this rate, Eater magazine should hire us to be food reviewers. We wish we could share everything under the sun, but here’s a quick lil hit list.
