After grabbing coffee and pastries at The Coffee Bean (very LA of us, though I prefer Starbucks' bakery items!) we relaxed for a bit and then headed to NoHo to meet my friend Alex. At his recommendation, we headed to EAT for a late brunch. LA was still experiencing an extreme heatwave and the restaurant was somehow even hotter inside than it was outside, so we grabbed a table under the misting fans and each ordered a variety of dishes. I stuck with my usual eggs benedict, but took a chance on the Ned's Benedict (with avocado, my fav) and it did not disappoint. After a wonderful time eating and catching up, Naomi and I headed back to our house and settled in for a nap and catching up on our various Netflix shows (I told you we were party animals).
You can't tell, but we were dying in the heat
We didn't have any definite plans for the evening, so we headed back to NoHo to check out City Walk at Universal Studios. We had intended to spend a day at Universal but after our exhausting day at Disney we thought it would be best to not tire ourselves out too much. That combined with the still horrifyingly high temps and the cost of another park admission kept us just inside City Walk. Naomi wanted Panda Express so we loaded up on their famous orange chicken and checked out the shops and sights around.
Not a bad view from the Universal parking garage
Next: Los Angeles, day 2
