This new cafe in the old Nova Express spot is sparsely decorated with historical photos and small cartoons, with food and drink coming from some of LA's best: Craftsman beers, sandwiches from the ex-Rustic Canyon head chef (a burger w/ Fiscalini Farmstead cheddar & brown sugar-glazed bacon; muffalata w/ salami, soft cheese, and housemade spread), funky ice cream from Koreatown's Scoops (Brown Bread, Strawberry Balsamic), and dogs and sausages (including spicy lamb and brats) from Culver City's Let's Be Frank, which, let's be frank, is about the wurst pun ever.
