La Cabaña (Venice)

From outside the windowless shack-like house doesn’t seem much, but inside it’s dark but colorful, and it has a vibrant and painterly patio. Each table in the patio are painted with different pictures. There’re cute Piñata of beer bottles shape hanging from the roof […]

Stroh’s Gourmet Deli (Abbot Kinney)

By in 15: Venice

I got lured in by this window sign and turns out it’s a deli with a little European import gourmet market. All the guys worked there are young and hunky (with accent). *_* I bought some of these candies that are supposedly different flavored, but they taste the same. They have chalky texture, I like~ […]
