Palermo Italian Restaurant

Italian restaurant · Los Feliz

@infatuation

"Los Feliz has its share of ancient classics (The Dresden, Tiki Ti, Ye Rustic Inn, etc.), so it should come as no surprise there’s a red sauce joint in the mix, too. Palermo doesn’t have the fun crowd or above-average food of its neighbors, but the hefty feta-topped Pizzarosa delivers what’s needed after a night out (any thicker and it would qualify as Chicago deep dish). The waitstaff will talk to you like your favorite grade school teacher and painted Sicialian seascapes cover the walls as far as the eye can see. Menu relics include chicken diane (we had to google what was in that, too) and a lentil soup that your server will tell you they’ve been eating for lunch every day for the last decade." - brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder

Chado Tea Room

Tea house · Hollywood

Chado opened on West 3rd Street in 1990 as a small, almost quaint tearoom with few tables, but with 300 canisters of teas from all over the globe lining the walls. In 1993, Reena Shah and her husband, Devan, acquired Chado and began quietly revolutionizing how people in greater Los Angeles think of tea. In 1999, Reena hired well-mannered and highly educated Tekeste (“Tek”) Mehreteab as a cook. Tek’s conscientious work, honesty, and dedication to tea soon made him a manager and in 2002, he became a partner with Devan and Reena in opening a second Chado location in Pasadena. Today, Chado’s three locations in the greater Los Angeles area serve as role models in America’s tea renaissance. Reena and Tek’s dedication to sharing their love of tea and refinement has influenced and inspired thousands, and made them major contributors to tea’s growth in the U.S. Chado supports tea education of every sort at every level through projects such as the Los Angeles International Tea Festival and Alson’s Tea for Siblings of the Disabled, which Reena started in memory of her own disabled brother, Alson
