FFG Eats: Breakfast at Joan's on Third, Los Angeles

Our mothers always told us breakfast was the most important meal of the day, right? Well, that seemed to set something off in me - an obsession with the meal itself. While most would think my obsession starts and stops with French Toast in this arena, well, all I can say is that Instagram tells it's own story when it comes to fascinations with food. Some things just photograph better than others. It's just the way the cookie, or waffle in this case, crumbles. But, taking a step back, I did want to mention a breakfast alternate, in LA, that's both speedy and delicious. It also happens to be a trendy hotspot on the breakfast circuit in this part of the world.

People in the know can predict the words I am about to write: Joan's on Third. It's a breakfast legend. You not only come here to eat delicious food, you come here to hobnob and brunch. It's an institution. As you might expect, it's on Third Street. There's seating indoors and out, but you go indoors to order at the counter. I mention this because half of the charm of Joan's is found indoors. So, even if you want to eat out, one is forced to step into the wonderful world of Joan. This is a beautiful setup, from shelves to sweet treats. Sadly, no pictures are allowed inside. So park your instagramming dreams at the door. 

Now, onto that culinary obsession and a breakfast sandwich to die for. Order the New York Breakfast Sandwich at Joan's on Third. It's the perfect fit for any breakfast go-er, whether you are on the run or sitting down with mates for a chit-chat. It also has all you need for a well balanced breakfast bake - eggs, bacon, cheese and bread. Done and done! For those with a sweet tooth, the french toast will satisfy, or a morning bun (double yum). 

In short, breakfast at Joan's on Third is eating like a local in Los Angeles. Put it on the places to go list, ASAP.
