Meet Me In Los Angeles, France | Republique, Hancock Park
I’ve been relentlessly teased with pictures of some of the most delicious looking desserts and tasty beverages for what seems like months on end from fellow Angelenos enjoying said items at LA’s latest and greatest hot spot: Republique (pronounced: rey-pooh-bleak – say it with me now).

One of my “new” favorite Los Angeles hideaways truly is the quintessential neighborhood joint. It’s cozy, in size and atmosphere, it has a local feel, it’s hip, and it’s just so darn friendly all the way around. I was recently looking for a new spot to try around my ‘hood, Culver City / West LA...
