good mole etc. Down the road on Foothill, in La Canada, Los Gringos Locos has the best made to order guacamole in LA and the rest of the food is decent. Italian: Need to go a bit farther (Divina is ok, but just that) - Glendale:...

In addition to the La Cabanita recommendation, Divina Cucina on Verdugo just south of Honolulu makes fantastic soups. If you’re ever lucky enough to go on a day when it’s yellow bell pepper bisque...

Has anyone tried the macaroons at Sucre? I am devoted to La Divina and Brocato’s and have never stepped foot into Sucre.

In the 5th you might want to consider Les Delices d’Aphrodite...refined greek food. Or, Vins de Bourgogne for great bistro food. La Comedia has great pastas, pizza...always packed with french people. These places are all...

Yes, it is still there. We’ve had a gelato explosion in NOLA since CC first opened. CC still has a wide variety of innovative flavors, but I’ve been converted to La Divina Gelateria on Magazine. La Divina is pricey,...

I get a lot of EVOO samples through work, but my favorite, which I will actually pay my own grubby pennies for, is Divina, available in Whole Foods, and I don’t know where else. It’s grown on a plantation in Crete,...

Second Divina Cucina. The soups are amazing, by the way. La Cabañita is excellent but loud.

Near the Censier metro, I can recommend several places. If you are in the mood for Italian, La Comedia has really great pizzas and an amazing vegetarian pasta. It’s always packed with locals. Also, the Cafe des Arts has...

La Comedia, immediately across the street from the Censier Daubenton metro stop on Rue Monge. They have a wood fired oven, huge sacks of flour and crates of eggs sitting around that are used to make the pizza dough, egg in the...

Bakeries: There’s lots on Magazine street. Sucre for gelato, chocolate and desserts. There’s La Divina next to it for more gelato. Down the street is La Boulangerie and La Delice, among the bakeries. Not on Magazine...

Bennachin (an African restaurant on 1212 Royal) once let me bring in my 32-lb pug, but I’m not sure that’s common practice for them. For a casual lunch, La Divina Gelateria just opened up a location in Pirate’s...

I finally tried La Divina today and was disappointed. The flavors are definitely unique, but not delicious. The consistency is strange as well and the prices are high. I will just go to Sucre, which is a few doors down and has...
