Simply the best… brunches, that is.
TRES BY JOSE ANDRES
There’s a little bit of everything at Jose Andres’ elegant spot at the SLS Beverly Hills—from caviar to a carving station to olive oil mini pancakes. Make sure to wash everything down with a Brazilian screwdriver (made with Cachaca and fresh citrus); a grapefruit mimosa or a non-alcoholic agua fresca. 465 S La Cienega Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90048
SALAZAR
This Frogtown eatery is a wonderful place to while away a morning from its outside patio, especially when you factor in Mexican fare such as chilaquiles or eggs Benedict with machaca. Make sure to try the ‘adult’ agua frescas such as the High Desert Cooler, a refreshing blend of rum, gin, aperol, banana, coconut, vanilla and condensed milk.
2490 Fletcher Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90039
REPUBLIQUE
ALCOVE BAKERY & CAFE
Alcove is a Los Feliz staple as much for its ambiance as its food. You can bring your puppy to dine with you in this glorious secret garden-esque atmosphere. Everything under the sun is on the menu, including crepes, pancakes, breakfast bowls of healthy grains, omelets, enchiladas and more. There’s even a Warrior Breakfast of eggs and chicken for the Golds Gym set. Personally, we’d rather refrain from counting calories and indulge in the Pimped Out Bloody Mary—made with mezcal or green chile vodka and a plethora of pickled goodies.
1929 Hillhurst Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90027
MALIBU FARM
Get your iPhone ready to snap photos of the stellar drinks, fabulous breakfast items like coconut French toast bread pudding and green eggs and ham “shakshuka” (if your hands aren’t shaking from overindulging at the mimosa bar) with the Malibu pier as your backdrop. It’s bliss. 23000 Pacific Coast Hwy, Malibu, CA 90265
THE CHURCH KEY
At West Hollywood hot spot The Church Key, there’s a Bloody Mary bar here should say it all. If it doesn’t, how’s this: there are bottomless bellinis, champagne, and rose all day, homemade brioche doughnuts and… yes, there’s more, but do you really need anything else?
8730 Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90069
MANHATTAN BEACH POST
Head to the beach for one of the best meals of your life. David LeFevre leaves the floor-to-ceiling windows to his upscale Manhattan Beach eatery, the MB Post, open on weekends, where scents like honey-laced fried chicken and bacon cheddar buttermilk biscuits will waft out to greet guests, like the Pied Piper was there. 1142 Manhattan Ave, Manhattan Beach, CA 90266
CULINA
The brunch at the Four Seasons Los Angeles’ signature restaurant, Culina, is out of this world. There are omelet stations, carving stations, sushi stations and more here…it’s endless and epic, which is why, come awards season, everyone who is anyone will be seen brunching here, and damn the calories!
