La Brea Bakery - Los Angeles

la brea  

La Brea bakery just opened up new location, just down the street from old location. Compared with old location, this new location was so much bigger and the workers were so friendly. Cashier was really slow, it seems like they are still learning.

Dumb Starbucks Coffee - Los Feliz

Dumb Starbucks Coffee - Los Feliz

Los Feliz  

So Dumb starbucks just opened in Los Feliz last Saturday, so I went there yesterday. I got there around 11:30am and there were already line. But I was there and since they were still giving away for free so I decided to wait in line. Yup, I'm dumb.

There were only two workers so it was moving slow. Also they don't have machines for blended drinks yet so they only had just hot drinks at the moment.

Also I don't understand the people who were bringing dogs inside the store. There were too many dogs at this store. Do you even think about people who are allergic to it? I'm sure dogs are part of your family but if you are bringing pets to public stores, please think about the other people who can't have animals around. That's the manner. And stores shouldn't be allowed pets inside. Health department needs to take some action.

F&Q.
Dumb Starbucks is not affiliated in any way with Starbucks co.

Here's the menu

They put "dumb starbucks" sticker on paper cup.

They were giving away free pastries from Vons

It looks like wrapped in plastic wrap.

Suddenly this guy came in and started selling unofficial dumb starbucks caps and mugs. It was donation so you decide the price. He sold everything in 1 minute.

He looks so happy

I got black coffee and caramel macchiato with 2% fat milk since they didn't have non fat milk. I thought it was funny when I spotted the barista handed soymilk to the guy and he poured soy milk himself.  

Caramel macchiato tasted like hazelnut. I wonder if he poured hazelnut instead of caramel. Black coffee was watery. It wasn't hot, not even warm. One of the worst black coffee I've got from actual store. After I finished drinking, I throw the cups away and I wish I saved them. Because so many people were asking me, where's the cup?

The line was longer when I was leaving. This is like 2 hours wait.

FYI: This was for TV show "Nathan for you" so the store is already closed. Check out the show!

koreatown  

It's been 3 years since last time I was here. The service was below average.. just like before. I pressed button like 3-4 times, and we finally got our server.

Also..
Ordered waffles and they didn't have it.
I asked for no whipped cream on my latte, they brought me with cream on top.
Outdoor heater was not working. It was cold night.
Tips were already included in the bill, even the service wasn't good.

Smores (s) $7.95

My sweet potato latte $5.95
They use real sweet potato, not powder. I liked my latte. It was good. I asked for no sugar but our server told me I can't because it's already mixed.

Sweet town is a new cafe in Chinatown.If you like iced milk, boba and shaved snow, this is the place in the area. Prices are very reasonable compared with similar boba places in K-town or J-town.

Inside was filled with Rirakkuma. So cute.
