My Saturday

So, after a good hike at Runyon this afternoon, my friends and I decided on a late lunch at Aroma Cafe in Hollywood.  You can check out the menu here: Aroma Cafe Hollywood. They have another location in Encino with a similar menu w/o any meat or poultry (Kosher). Because of the whole kosher thing, they tend to have good options for vegetarians, e.g. Hummus with eggplant and cucumber salad, Grape leaves, Salads, Egg Dishes, Different platters with cheese and dips, Fish, Yummy Jerusalem Bagel sandwiches that are sooo YUM ATTACK! Mannny options...

I went for the "SABICH" (on the bottom right of the pic) aka hummus platter with roasted eggplant, tomato and cucumber salad, pickles, pita bread, and a hard-boiled egg. oh, and a side of grape leaves :)  oh, and my buddies and i shared the grilled artichoke as an appetizer too! It was good, but very heavy, i feel like i ate a ton!

Aroma is a good place because it has tons of options, for meat-eaters and veggie-only eaters, so it works for everyone. Oh, btw, they also have AN AMAZING BAKERY AND COFFEE SELECTION! I think most of the desserts are prepared with dairy, but there is always one option that is completely dairy-free but may contain eggs (PAREVE).

Check 'em out!
