FOODVENTURE: AFTERS ICE CREAM & BESTIA

What started as a normal Sunday with church and a need to get some lunch turned into quite the foodventure. We were with the Turners and of course Billy was hyped to go to Afters Ice Cream since church let out at the perfect time to snag a prime spot in line prior to opening.  See neither his wife or mine had the pleasure of eating this heavenly treat, so it only made sense.

Joyce finally got her milky bun.  Glazed donut stuffed with churro ice cream.

After lunch and a nap we grabbed a late bite with our LA foodie friends Amar and Suzing at downtown LA spot Bestia.  

If there is bone marrow on the menu, we try it.  It worked real well with the spinach gnocci.

Cavatelli Alla Norcina: ricotta dumplings and housemade pork sausage with black truffles and grana padano.

This happened because one is just not enough.  Spaghetti Rustichella: sea urchin and squid ink bottarga with garlic, calabrian chiles, and breadcrumbs.
