after sleeping in on saturday morning (it was glorious!!) we made our way to the la brea / grove area to try out short order. their shakes are custard-based, and the chocolate shake was so good without being very sweet. the burgers were pretty amazing too. james had nancy's backyard burger (dry-aged beef blend, applewood bacon, avocado, tomato, red onion, iceberg lettuce, comte, spicy mayo) and i had ida's old school burger (grass-fed beef, house-made pickles, tomato, grilled onion, iceberg lettuce, aged cheddar, secret sauce). the dry-aged beef in james's burger was awesome and just so flavorful, and my burger was like an in'n'out animal style cheeseburger taken to a whole new level; and their homemade pickles are SO. GOOD. only thing i took issue with was that my bun didn't really hold up, but then again, i tend to be a bit of a messy eater, so it could have been my fault.
we also had an order of their old school fries ("thrice cooked"!!) and crispy pickle chips, which were the best fried pickles i've ever had. definitely a place we'll be going back to.
on our way out of the farmers market, i couldn't help but stop at loteria! grill for just a single a mole poblano chicken taco. i was so full i couldn't have more, but i've been wanting to try their tacos for so long i couldn't resist. and that is some damn good mole, in my opinion at least.
short order and loteria! grill at the farmers market.
