Description:
SANTA MONICA. This reinvigorated 1920s coffee shop is a frequent morning hangout for area tourists, as well as for locals who know to snag a seat on the patio. A major draw is Cora's superb, if expensive, coffee – Illy is the brand of choice. If you're in the market for sustenance too, wonderful morning eats include extremely popular orange and blueberry pancakes, omelets, frittatas, and oatmeal. Lunch brings chicken arugula salad, polenta, and a Kobe beef burger. Great for a drink and snack or for something more substantial. |

Description:
WEST LOS ANGELES. Light, healthy, and quick, Lemon Moon is popular with local office workers for its Mediterranean-inspired salads and sandwiches. Opt for an exotic soup, like butternut squash puree, to accompany your choice of savory salads – Madras curried chicken, roasted beets and orange segments, rock shrimp ceviche, and roasted eggplant with feta and kalamata olives, for example. Don't forget about breakfast, when treats like herb-roasted vegetable omelets and an Italian egg bake with mozzarella, eggplant marinara, and basil are made evident. |

Description:
WEST LOS ANGELES. It's said that the true test of a restaurant's authenticity is its clientele – if expats eat there, it must be the real thing. Monte Alban is the real thing. Its strip-mall location may not be the most elegant, but the decor is warm and festive. Of course, the reason most people show up is for the food – specifically, for moles (sauces) that grace most dishes and send Oaxacan food lovers into spasms of pure delight. Whether you choose black, red, yellow, or green mole, you're sure to be satisfied. And if you're not sure what or how to order, the friendly staff are happy to point you in the right direction. |

A variety of freshly baked cookies, scones, and muffins are available for take-out, as are a range of dinner entrees to heat up at home. Afternoon tea is $18.95 per person. |

Description:
BEVERLY HILLS. French for "Daily Bread," this café and bakery features warm, inviting European ambience and is a favorite haunt of models and celebrities. Even so, the establishment is not out to set trends or attract a fashionable crowd; rather, its main goal is to provide scrumptious, open-face sandwiches fashioned of items like smoked salmon, duck pâté, and fresh breads. After you've indulged in them, give yourself over to the cafe's delicious cakes, pastries, and baked goods too. A communal table is available, as are individual perches. |
