Alcove

Cafe and Bakery

utumn has arrived in Cali
which means cool sweater
days. Can't believe we're
already on the month of
AOctober and Christmas is
two months away. Time sure flies! I sure
had a great summer. Hope you all did
too. Will be missing the warm summer
months for sure. Though glad to be back
doing reviews after a few months being
away on a project. So let's start reviews
on DineTravelinStyle!...
Last spring my associates and I
wanted to meet halfway for a late night
dinner in LA for a production meeting.
As a food-event blogger, it's always nice
to find something new to dine anywhere
in LA. A friend of ours had suggested
Alcove Cafe & Bakery. As we came to
park by the street in front of the cafe,
there's the valet guy. It's about $6.00 to
park valet, but you can actually park on
metered streets or at other neighboring
streets with no charge. Be sure to read
road signs before you park. You are
bound to get a ticket in LA if you're not
careful.
Already, I loved the outdoor feel of
the Cafe with it's garden like
setting, patios, dainty flowers,
old trees and tree lights. As you
walk in you have to fall in line
to order food & drinks. You
bring your drinks to the table
of your choice or to the bar
and you're given a number so
that the server can bring your

DINE TRAVEL IN STYLE food once its ready. You can
