the front counter of the Atwater eating establishment Thank You for Coming

…is the name of the new-to-me but year-old artist-run Atwater Village eating establishment just off the beaten path zone of Glendale Boulevard bustle where I was lead yesterday by friends Luke & Sarah (after running into them at the farmers market, they are guides to good things, so I always follow them) where we had my perfect first LA meal of 2014 – a hopeful indication of the direction for the rest of the year, I’ll be a regular at the communal tables.
