Quick Looks LA

Featured Items

(Jan) NIGHT ON BROADWAY - #DTLA's annual #NightonBroadway celebration was cancelled in 2019 - hopefully to return in future years. NightonBroadway = Local vendors and artists, an armada of food trucks, concerts, stilt-walkers, a 12' tall harp, and even a living Zoltar! @NightonBWayLA. [Leslie Le Mon is the author of the Downtown Los Angeles in Photographs series (Amazon, B&N).]

(Feb) CINEMA COSTUMES - The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (#FIDM) in #DTLA exhibits cinema costumes for free. Exhibits have included #Oscar-nominated films such as Live by Night, Hidden Figures, Fences, and LaLa Land. The 2020 exhibit will once again feature the astonishing costumes of Marvel's Black Panther. [Below, costumes from #LivebyNight (left) and #HiddenFigures (right).]

VOODOO DOUGHNUTS - Have you been yet? Portland's Voodoo Doughnuts opened a shop at Universal CityWalk in March 2017, and the Les Le Mon Author team was there on opening day, selflessly leaving no stone unturned in sharing LA's quirky and delicious desserts. Never mind the long lines; the unique menu, friendly service, and retro prices (only $1.50 - $2.50 per doughnut!) makes this a must-stop. Creamy-earthy Stumptown coffee's a bonus.[Recommended treats (below): Oh Captain, My Captain (Captain Crunch & Crunch Berries cereal); the Butterfinger; the Diablos Rex (so chocolaty it's almost evil); the Dirt Doughnut (Oreo goodness); Voodoo Double Bubble; and the Grape Ape (purple heaven!).] #VoodooDoughnuts #Stumptown #DTLA #Universal #nomnomnom]

ASTRO DOUGHNUTS - A recent-ish arrival (April 2017) at 516 W 6th Street in #DTLA, Astro Doughnuts is a franchise in a doughnuts-and-fried-chicken chain. Pricier (much) than Voodoo at CityWalk, Astro still has the benefit of a central location (it's Red Line-adjacent in the heart of downtown), friendly staff, and delectable chicken dishes in addition to its pastries. NB: In 2019, they switched to a catering format. Recommended: the PB&J pocket and the rich chocolate Mud Slide. @AstroDoughnuts #DTLA #FoodieLife
