THE GRIDDLE CAFE

Head to The Griddle for some of the most gargantuan breakfasts and brunches in Los Angeles. Eggs Benedict, pancakes and waffles; alongside these late-morning staples are more unusual dishes, such as scrambled eggs served with shrimp and pesto. If you're in the mood, be careful not to over-order: portions can easily be shared between two people. Also, note that the places are crowded on weekends: you may have to wait.
