RED LINE TREATS
I realize you couldn’t cover all the eats available at each Red Line spot in your July 10 cover story [“Dining Destinations”], but as a public transportation dependent and a Red Line rider since its inception, let me just add a few that are available within walking distance of the Sunset/Vermont stop:
In the Barnsdall shopping complex, for example, there is Yum, a fine Thai restaurant, as well as Jons Market, where the tres leches cake is first-rate -- and who doesn’t need an injection of sugar when navigating the L.A. subway?
And while there are those who love Fred 62, for those of us who value whatever hearing capacity we have left, the venerable House of Pies across the street is more than acceptable: Fresh strawberry and peach pie are now in season, and at the holidays people line up for the pumpkin and apple crumb pie.
Finally, Cuba Libre offers great happy hour drinks and hors d’oeuvres as well as live music later in the evening.
Ole!
