Studio City crowded on a weekday afternoon
Since this is my nightshift day, we thought we'd go to Aroma in Studio City for a little something. Mobbed. Makes the weekends look downright doable at this extremely popular spot.
The line wasn't just out the door, it then went around the corner a bit.
A lot more people are ordering full meals at Aroma. While pricey, the food does look good. But I hate crowds. And I hate waiting.
We went to Coffee Bean on Whitsett Avenue and Ventura Boulevard. No line. No seats either. It was a bit windy outside (there might have been a free table out there). But inside, all three tables were occupied by lifers. Three inside tables for two. That's it.
We grabbed a couple chocolate chip cookies, went home and made our own tea. That what Studio City on a weekday afternoon will do to you.
I like Jennifers, across the street from Aroma. in the minimall on the corner of Moorpark and Tujunga. More laid back and seldom much of a line. Comfy couchs, too.
I worked in the office building on the corner for about a year, so I got familiar with neighborhood.
