  • Hi Friends! We were in Los Angeles recently and of course I had to visit as many amazing bakeries as I could! Brian and the boys tagged along for part of the day and helped me taste test all the delicious offerings. Los Angeles might not be known for it's bakeries but the city's diversity has created a wonderful abundance of delicious options with flavors from around the globe. Let me know if there's a bakery or city I should try next!

    Enjoyable video, thanks! I'm originally from Los Angeles and it was nice seeing a bit of it. Made me feel a bit nostalgic. I miss the old bakeries I knew from ages ago. My grandparents bought their Challah and bagels from the Beverlywood Bakery on Pico, which was close to where they lived. But sometimes they'd go to Brown's Bakery on Wilshire, heading towards downtown. Those bakeries made lots of other baked goods, like the yummy chocolate chip danish, sort of like giant rugelach. Both bakeries are gone now, so sad. But that's life, ever changing. Thanks for your sharing your fave bakeries!

    Doesn’t matter which Porto’s you visit, they’re always busy. But I read somewhere, at the end of the day. All their left over pastries get boxed and shipped to the many shelters in LA county. Thank you for showing that bakery from Chinatown. As a kid, I loved that strawberry cake but we never knew where it came from. And here you are showing the video!! Love you guys!!! 💕

      God sent His son Jesus to die for our sins on the cross. This was the ultimate expression of God's love for us. Then God raised Jesus from the dead on the third day. Please repent and turn to Jesus and receive Salvation now before it is too late. The end times written about in the Holy Bible are already happening in the world. Jesus loves you with all His heart ❤️ but time is almost up.

We also visit El Gallo Bakery on Cesar E Chavez for Pan de Agua, as well as The Pantry for breakfast if we arrive early enough!

    Great video. Next time you're in LA and like French pastries then Cool bites patisserie located in Glendale is an absolute must. My personal faves are their Paris-Brest, Cherry-Matcha and St. Honore. And they have the best moist carrot cake I've ever had. It takes me back to Paris each time I take a bite of their pastries.
