I had lunch at Le Pain Quotidien. Service was very good. As it was noon, the croissant was a bit limp which means it was not fresh. The waffle (gaufre liegeois) was great; comme en Belgique!
Ahh, Le Pain Quotidien is always disappointing
Do try the City Bakery. Don't order real food. Just stick to the pastries and cookies. Many love the "pretzel croissant". I do not. If you have the time, go to the Brentwood Country Mart(where City Bakery is located) on a weekday and get a chicken basket from Reddi-Chick. There is a nice little candy store next to the chicken place called Edelweiss Not bad for Los Angeles.
