Stolichnaya Bakery - West Hollywood

west hollywood  

It's almost a year ago, I was in the area so I stopped by this bakery. Pastries are reasonable but too sweet for me.I also don't like the place sells pastries by pounds. The only reason I come here is for piroshki. I think this place is known for that. They have many different flavors of piroshki.

Piroshki $1.25

Sweet pretzel $1.50

Santa Barbara  

About 2 months ago, I went to Santa Barbara to have lunch. Downtown Santa Barbara is really nice.There were two coffee places I wanted to go in Santa Barbara and this is one of the place.
I liked my drink. I wanna try latte next time.

Verve coffee

Shakerato and cup of  french press (after adding cream and sugar)

My shakerato $3
They shake it. Then pour into the glass. That's why it's called "shakerao".

Urspace - Temple City

temple city  

Urspace is brand new cafe restaurant in Temple City. It did look little upscale place at first, but once you go inside, it's pretty cool space. I didn't take pics but there are indoor patio area too.
When I was here about a week ago, they were having grand opening special and all the food was 20% off. I'm not sure if they are still doing that promo or not.

Cold jasmine tea

Jasmine tea $6

Winter espresso $4.75
I asked for easy on sugar, but it was still too sweet so I asked if they can make it again with no sugar, It was still sweet.

flatbread with truffle, spinach, mushrooms and blue cheese $8

rice and spinach
I tasted spinach, it was flavorful but too salty.
