Dining room at BLD, Los Angeles, CAWell, the choice is tough. Should you go to BLD for breakfast, lunch or dinner (BLD)? All three meals are a good reason to visit this modern and comfortable restaurant on Beverly Boulevard. The team behind Grace took over the space left by Opaline and Café Capo, and opened it up to the street adding large sliding windows; they moved the bar, whitened the walls, and added a retail specialty food store. The lunch and dinner menus are basically the same, making the restaurant a neighborhood gathering spot with a casual and friendly ambience. You can taste the freshness of the ingredients with the large selection of salads that includes four Caesars, an albacore tuna salad, and a fried tofu variation with asparagus in a miso-rice wine vinaigrette. Sandwiches, made with braised short ribs, braised pork or curried chicken, or burgers (a generous portion of Wagyu beef or grilled turkey) with a choice of three cheeses can follow. Pastas and a soup-of-the-day are other options. Try the fromage blanc cheesecake or the peach-nectarine cobbler for dessert. Breakfast, which starts at 8 a.m., presents a long and delicious list of morning treats such as waffles, pancakes, crêpes and many egg preparations. Don’t forget to ask for the brioche.
