"The Original Pantry Cafe, Downtown La. The Original Pantry Cafe has been around since 1924, but seems old because their site is designed in Flash. That's okay, once you get there, you'll see why people line up around the building for a mediocre breakfast at three in the morning. Open 24 hours continuously since 1924, once you get in, you're transported back to the 1920's once you sit down and take a bite. It's an L.A. institution. The food is greasy but perfect for those late nights (or early mornings). And like Los Angeles itself, you'll see that the cafe is nothing spectacular, it's mostly famous for being famous."
