So, I head out to Sawtelle today, where there is a stretch of really fun Japanese restaurants. I did some watercolors before the sun went down. The air has been really clear and the colors, absolutely beautiful here in LA lately. 
There's a Yogurtland there, some good Japanese supermarkets, several noodle and boba places along with Giant Robot and Giant Robot2, with some cool art books, a gallery of work by a talented artist named Theo Ellesworth and lots of inspiration. That night there were some food trucks, and I had myself a nice tofu burrito and taco from Bool and some amazing sweet empanadas from Chef Che.
