🍳 LA Brunch Mini-Review | Hits & Misses

1️⃣ Sqirl – ⭐️2.0 Ricotta toast: burnt, dry French toast – though the peach-orange jam was nice (better to just buy a jar) Middle Eastern chicken porridge: bland and underwhelming Slow service, out-of-the-way location 💬 Verdict: Skip it. Not worth the hype or drive. 2️⃣ Tartine (Santa Monica) – ⭐️3.5 📍 Housed in a converted church – low-key but popular with locals Avocado toast: mixed with tangy mayo – pretty good Solid baked goods as always 💬 Worth a try if you’re nearby – but not a must-visit. 3️⃣ Dialog Cafe (inside Equinox) – ⭐️4.0 Protein omelette + sourdough – simple, clean, satisfying No frills, just good fuel 💬 Perfect for a healthy, no-nonsense meal after a workout 🏋️‍♀️ 📌 Final take: Skip Sqirl, try Tartine if you’re curious, and hit Dialog when you want something light and well-made. #LABrunch #BrunchReview #LAEats #EatLikeALocal #HealthyLA #SkipSqirl
