Tamarind Ave Deli

So I try not to eat out too much, but sometimes I want a treat. One of my favorite places to splurge for lunch is Tamarind Ave Deli,  near Sunset and Gower. They’re really basic: sandwiches, chips and soda, but they do the basics really well! The Sandwiches are all around $7-$8, but they are huge and usually two meals for me! They are sooo sooo good. And then you have the wall of soda’s! It usually takes me longer to choose my drink. Celery soda, birch beer, Iced tea from Switzerland, Blood Orange Soda, and so many more. If you can’t decide, they guy behind the counter will happily explain and describe any and every soda they have. I can tell you now, his favorite is the iced tea!

Next time you’re in Hollywood and want an amazing sandwich ya gotta try this place.

LA Reconnaissance (LA Recon) is an LA based scavenger hunt company, formed by Kimberly Olpin and Amy Trulock. Teams of 2-4 people solve challenging clues that lead them around LA neighborhoods where they must perform tasks and answer questions. They are fun, silly, and informative adventures which focus on discovering LA’s hidden treasures: historical, folklore, quirky, obscure, and occasionally off the beaten path.

LA Recon was started after Kim and Amy created a crazy adventure for their friends on the occasion of Kim’s 30th birthday. Both are Southern California natives who love to explore and find unique events and places. Kim decided she wanted to share some of her favorite discoveries with her friends, so together they created a day long adventure encompassing Hollywood and downtown LA. After a very successful Birthday hunt, they decided the plan more in different places around the city. Now they are opening their hunts to the public to show off the city they love.

Likewise, this blog will showcase our editorial picks for our favorite things in, around, and about Los Angeles.
