Porto's Bakery.

Tuna puff pastry.

Let's face it, I don't really need to make an entry about Porto's, they're here as an honorable mention. Great sandwiches for about $4, amazing smoothies and pastries, cookies, and cakes... you can usually find me at their Burbank location at least once a week.

My favorites:
Tuna salad croissant
Ham & Cheese croissant
Caprese sandwich
Ham& Cheese Omelette croissant

Potato balls
Chicken croquettes
Spinach croissant (elusive after 6 pm)

Strawberry banana smoothie
Guava smoothie

Triple chocolate mousse (heaven)

Was finally able to snag the Ham&Cheese omelette croissant for breakfast (til 11 am). I think I cried, it was so delicious.

Tuna salad Croissant.

Spinach croissant and triple chocolate mousse.

I was only here for a Macaron run, but I was pretty impressed by the decor and dessert bar. I tried a green tea macaron and I daresay it was the best I've had. $3 a piece. The Earl grey macaron is blue with gold flecks, so pretty.

I'd brave downtown LA just to come back here for an actual meal. (I have my eye on you, Portobello fries...) but for now, I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Rows and rows of Macarons.
