Laurent Bonjour's Mobile Frommagerie



We went to a great event on Friday at RoyalT for wine champagne and cheese tasting. It was very nice, perfectly timed right after work, easy to get to and very relaxed. The wine was fantastic (will post the list soon) and the cheese was FANTASTIC. This guy just goes around in his truck and supplies some of the best restaurants in CC and Del Rey with his fantastic fromage. He was like the adult version of Blue Bell!

Sazon Latin Fusion Centinella/Washington



Sazon is one of those neighborhood gems you probably drive or walk by everyday but never go into. I finally got around to going and it was REALLY worth it. Probably the best Cubano sandwich this side of Sepulveda and at $6 and change a great deal as well.

The fries left a little something to be desired but again this is a great spot and the empanadas were also fantastic. Next time you are at B&B just pop over for lunch, you wont' regret it...
