- After this, I just had to have breakfast at Millie's (and get bread at
- the La Brea Bakery. Oh! the joys of unemployment!) I'm sorry to say
- that the place is safe for the folks from Toledo; the walls are now
- filled with childish paintings by Zachary Something, all for sale.
- (Most have been sold, so hurry.)
-
- But Millie's (at 3524 Sunset) is quite a find. It's a funky little
- neighborhood restaurant, where everyone gets a friendly "good morning!"
- and where it's ok to read the paper after all the food is gone. I
- especially liked the way they did their potatoes. I never eat potatoes
- for breakfast if I can avoid it (spare me the hash browns and grits and
- all that), but these were just spicy enough. The cappuccino was
- decent, too. Millie's seems to come alive later than most breakfast
- joints, when the local artists decide to wake up. Recommended.
