Breakfast near downtown LA this Sunday the 26th?
Anybody up for a breakfast meetup this Sunday? I have to drop the tweeze off at the convention center at 7am for a half marathon she is running so I'll have about 3 hours to kill. Is there somewhere good near downtown to grab breakfast, and would anybody want to meet up?

7AM?!?!?
The Original Pantry is an LA institution but gets mixed breakfast reviews. This place is supposed to be good: Nickel Diner - Downtown - Los Angeles, CA | Yelp Denis may have better suggestions near downtown. I know a great Hawaiian place on the west side that has the best French toast ever. |

Todd, I'm not excited about the time either. Will probably have to get up around 5 to make it there from the OC.
Sounds good Dave. You'll still be up right?

How about the "Pantry"? That place has not closed doors in, what, 50 years? I think the doors don't even have locks:

I'm not a big breakfast guy but I've noticed that Phillipe's has a full breakfast menu and everything there is usually good. Moderately priced, as well.
It's on the other end of DT, though, across from Union Station on Alameda. |

The pantry will work, depends on you guys. I'm always up for local dives. Now, who all is in?
Dennis, a little ways away is ok. I'll have a car. The area around the convention center will be thick with runners if that figures into the equation |

Burn the fire.

I hate LA, but worth it for meeting up with Pelicans.
Anyone want to carpool past the orange curtain?

Sounds fun! There's even a chance I might get my SC off of non-op between now and then!

Tom, you know I'm not a morning person either. But I suppose as long as we get someone to hook up a coffee IV drip I'll manage( I'm looking at you alarick)
So I'm thinking we meet around 730 ish? Whats the thought on food. I've seen lots of suggestions. Someone pick a place! Any favorites? |

I'd like to go, I'll see if I can make it. I love the Pantry, haven't been there in a bit. Oh man 7:30... that time of day doesn't exist on a sunday.
Dad and I used to go to the Pantry for breakfast when we'd be doing stuff round LA. One time we showed up and there were police all over. A guy had been freakin stabbed maybe half an hour before we got there and part of the place was taped off as a crime scene. Still sat down and got to eat, good ol LA.
