Do you ever get a hankering for a black bean latte? Certainly you do. And since you live in LA you can have your latte and drink it too at the cheeky little K. Town spot, Caffe Concerto.
Besides worldly treasures like said latte, you can sip on Ades just a stone’s throw from the Wiltern, as in Yozu Ade, Lemonade and Pink Berry Ade. Not in a sour mood? Explore a long list of exotic teas or cocktails--this place does host a happy hour. As for eats you please your ‘buds with not-so-tradish Italian bites. Think Lobster Spaghetti and Chicken & Mushroom Spaghetti, complete with mushroom and bacon cream sauce. Yes, bacon. If you’re going light on the carbs this week, nosh on lighter options like a beef salad or seared albacore. Oh and note, Caffe Concerto isn’t just home to tasty sips and eats, it houses an ton of mouthwatering pastries. There goes your diet. Pineapple cupcakes, Frangipane and Passion fruit tarts, Carrot cupcakes, Black Sesame cupcakes, chocolate macaroons, earl grey macaroons--shall we continue? There’s no shortage of sweets in these parts. Mix this fare with a touch of charming decor (black and white stripped couches, rustic wooden tables, an eat-at-the-bar-sitch) and you’ve got yourself nothing short of a masterpiece.
