    Living in Central Europe I have to admit that I was skeptical due to things that could be called “racist”, but after the first minute I’ve been in love. It really does look high quality - high effort. Thumbs up for the business. Couldn’t buy it in here any better. Edit: wtdaf - $5.50 per piece?? It’s like €1.5 in here for a similar one.. way overpriced

    Try Bread & Cei in Hillcrest. Very similar offerings and more (savory and sweet). It's very popular so parking and seating is a challenge, but there are a few space on the west side of the building. Of course you can always get take-out. So far it's my favorite in San Diego. I'm always searching for real French fare where ever I go.

If I were you two I’d plan for another vacation destination all you’re gonna get in LA is traffic, homeless, literal filth covering the sidewalks they’re not grey they’re black now, and just about every restaurant you see online is overhyped and you still have to wait over an hour just to get the food. Don’t get me wrong you’ll be able to have fun but overall this really isn’t a vacation destination just another overcrowded big city that has a large name
