Canelè

It's not just Matt and I that are obsessed with the brunch at Canelè in Atwater Village.  Get there after 11am on a weekend and see the masses trying to get their fix, too. 
It's not your run of the mill eggs-bacon-and-toast brunch, either.  The food is different... inventive... exciting.
I've only tried a couple things on their menu because after the first taste of their coffee cake (who doesn't order a starter for breakfast?) and fried farro, it was a done deal.  

The cake is a ricotta coffee cake topped with a heaping pile of mascarpone, served with a piping hot creamer of espresso to pour over the top just before consumption.  And the farro... fried with thick bacon, greens (the type varies and I don't remember what they were this last visit), topped with a fried egg and served with a small cup of sriracha.  Between the two dishes it's the perfect combination of sweet and savory.  

I could eat this every day.
