Aroma
So lately, I’m coffee obsessed. I don’t mean I like coffee every now and then, I mean STICK A FREAKING COFFEE I.V. IN MY ARM AND KEEP THEM COMING! I haven’t had this much coffee since finals at college.
So I’ve been doing the rounds to all the coffee houses in LA county. I plan to branch out to Orange County, Ventura County, Riverside, San Bernardino…
There’s a particularly lovely spot in Encino on Ventura Blvd. just East of Lindley Ave. called the Aroma Café. Keep in mind that you’ll immediately break out in a terrible rash if you have a Nazi bone in your body because this is an Israeli establishment. There are so many Jews in this place that you’d think you’d start speaking Hebrew simply from osmosis. There are Russian Jews, Persian Jews, Moroccan Jews, Yemenite Jews… lions and tigers and Jews, oh my!
The waitresses are all very cute and exotic looking. They all have Israeli names like Yael and Michal and other names made up of sounds that no human throat can make. Just try to pronounce it and they all laugh at you.
The coffee at Aroma is not only delicious (and moderately overpriced) but beautiful!
I’m in love. And look! The coffee loves me back. Awwwwwwww…
