Sweet! - Hollywood and Highland

I knew about this place since their opening because all the media was talking about this place but I never got a chance to come here. Well, I finally had a chance to go there for the Yelp elite event. We had some candies, chocolates, and the food from Urban Masala, and Sweet! toured by Willy Wonka!

Sweet! is a huge store, filled with chocolates and candies! Like seriously, you're gonna find what you are looking for. If you are looking for some souvenirs, you must check this place out.















Yummy chocolates and yelp candies












Food from Urban Masala

I didn't know Reese's has sugar free peanut butter cups.












Now you don't have to go to M&M's store. You can get all those different flavors of M&M's here!

Fickle / The sandwich smith - Little Tokyo

Fickle / The sandwich smith  is newly opened place in Little Tokyo. They serve sandwiches and some pastries during lunch time, and they serve dinner during dinner time. I've been here 4-5 times already, usually to get some pastries. Their pastries are not only delicious, but also every time I come here, they have different items so it's kinda fun. Apricot bar and donuts are recommended.


















Thai tea donuts $2.50













Light and tasty













Apricot Bar $3.50














rosemary shortbread, apricot. Nom nom













Date coffee cake $1.75
This was my least favorite. It was dry.













Samoa $2.75
glazed donut, gooey caramel, toasted coconut, chocolate on top.

Equator - Pasadena

I had quick happy hour dinner with my friend.They have different happy hour every day. I guess I was here on Thursday because our martini was $3. The service was good but bit slow.













Happy Hour menu























Our happy hour $3 Lychee and cosmopolitan martinis














Free Pan fried dumplings with Yelp check-in
It didn't taste homemade, tasted like frozen gyoza so I'm guessing it's pre made frozen gyoza. Not recommended.



















Wilted spinach and mushroom salad with fried egg and crispy onions $9
I absolutely loved it. This salad was so tasty. All the salad should be tasty like this salad.













Spicy tuna roll $8













Popcorn chicken (Freddie-style with spicy peppers) $11
It had some Chinese/Taiwanese food flavor. It was pretty big portion. I personally didn't like it so much.

Tarte Tatin Bakery - Beverly Hills

Another yummy bakery in Beverly Hills. It's pricey, like our tart was around $5-$6 each.
We saw 2-3 customers getting pastries to go and they were all getting their cookies. Must be really good. There were so many other pastries I wanted to try but, next time.. I'm definitely going back.


















Plum tart













I think this was an apple
