"Is there anywhere more chic than Laveta’s outdoor space in Echo Park? We’re putting our money on no. Outfitted with sleek, minimalist wooden furniture, austere slabs of concrete, and signature drinks like the namesake Laveta (made with two shots of espresso, organic maple syrup, and oat milk) and the berry mojito fizz, a refreshing mix of raspberries, blackberries, Korean omija berry extract, sparkling water, and mint, there’s no better place in town to put on oversized sunglasses and type away at your computer while narrating your life, Carrie Bradshaw-style." - kat hong
