los angeles is a hotbed for new restaurants that could turn anyone into a food blogger, but cafe flora stands apart in so many ways. opened in conjunction within the new mansur gavriel store on melrose place — the space already had a kitchen and voila! cafe flora was born. if the pink facade hints at anything it’s that the entire experience will be photo worthy, and just as you step through the threshold you are transported to milano. rustic white ceramics glow under the billowings of pink bougainvillea. slip into your favorite summer frock for this one, and don’t shy away from the feminine — the whole store will remind you why being a girl is so fun in the first place. we suggest the burrata and tomato dish while you take the opportunity to show off your summer accessories — raffia bags and tortoise-shell jewels are high on our rotation. this week’s read this there is stephanie danier’s sweetbitter. as the top-selling novel becomes a tv series we finally have a craving to know what everyone’s talking about!
