The Best Restaurants In East Hollywood - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"How good can egg salad really be? That’s a question we’d probably ask if we'd never been to Friends & Family, the bakery and coffee shop across from Sapp that has one of the best deli cases around. That tarragon-heavy egg salad on some house-made sourdough is usually our go-to, but there are a lot of reasons why this place has long lines on Saturday and Sunday mornings. The date-and-walnut-loaded roast chicken salad is good, and if you’re hungover, not much can beat the patty melt. Regardless, make sure you supplement your order with some buckwheat pancakes. They’re light, fluffy, and, when doused with seasonal fruit preserves and barrel-aged maple syrup, everything you want pancakes to be." - brant cox, cathy park
