This is pretty much L.A.’s prototype for the classic city diner. It
claims to have been open continuously since the 1920s, and we believe
it. If you haven’t guessed, you go for the hearty, no-frills breakfast
at any time of the day. The coffee is hot and constant. The sourdough
toast comes in a pile so big, it could be called a loaf; the
bacon—thick and crispy—comes in equally man-sized portions. "No frills"
also means no credit cards; it’s cash only.
