LA's Best Dishes: The Infatuation's favorite meals of the week.

"This LA River-adjacent cafe/bike rental shop is one of my all-time favorite lunch hangouts, but admittedly, it’d been a minute since I’d been back. I stopped in to do some very official breakfast sandwich research, and it’s as wonderful as ever. Their graffitied, open-air patio is the best outdoor space on the Eastside and that’s a hill I will happily die on. I ordered both the breakfast sandwich and the veggie burger, and though both were fantastic, the veggie burger is a standout. Made with a smoked mushroom and beet patty and topped with tempeh bacon, pickled onions, and garlic aioli on a soft griddled bun, it’s a smoky and savory masterpiece. Outside of food though, Spoke still maintains that cool-but-so-cool-it’s-annoying vibe that makes it the kind of place where 30 minutes becomes three hours in the blink of an eye. If you’ve got a friend in town and want to show them a completely different side to LA than the one they see in movies and on Bravo!, head to Spoke Bicycle. - Brant Cox, Content Lead" - the infatuation los angeles crew
