If you are ever in Downtown LA (or DTLA) as they call it here, then you should definitely stop by the historic Grand Central Market - preferably for breakfast. Gran Central Market is known as a downtown landmark since 1917. It brings together a great diversity of amazing (and delicious) food vendors all representative of LA culture.

I thought I would highlight two of these vendors; G&B coffee and Eggslut. I personally don't drink coffee so I can't really judge G&B's coffee. This being said, I have it on good authority that is it pretty incredible. The iced latte (more up my alley) was delicious with just the right amount of ice vs. coffee. Eggslut, was right up my alley and delivered above and beyond what I had imagined. We tried their iconic 'slut' which is actually a coddled egg on top of a smooth potato purée, poached in a glass jar and served with a demi baguette. Mix well the egg into the purée and dip the baguette - pure bliss. If you are looking for something a little heavier then I would heavily suggest the 'fairfax' which consists of the most amazing and perfectly scrambled eggs, chives, cheddar cheese, caramelised onions and sriracha mayo in a warm brioche bun.

There are loads of incredible vendors that I can't wait to check out.

As per tradition we spent an afternoon walking around (and getting lost) in Le Maris. I love this neighborhood, especially during the week when it's quieter, as it is always changing and moving. There are always new shops popping up left and right, new restaurants to try out and new bars to discover. We stumbled upon Le Dépanneur Fricote which is a fleeting shop that sells all things made in the US - from marshmallow fluff to fuit loops, from Opinels to barbecue sauce, from Betty Crocker chap sticks to Mac & cheese  ... However, it is only open until the 23 April so if you are in Paris go and check them out and  stock up on all things american. If not you can always check out Yumise. They sell all of this stuff online, however they only ship to France at the moment, hopefully this will change some time soon. Thanks to the guys in the shop for sharing the website with us - a delicious find.
