Honey Hi

The name may sound cute-sy (it's also a Fleetwood Mac song), but Honey Hi is serious about making flavorful, healthy dishes for the Echo Park crowd. The minimalist shop features a deli case and a fridge full of locally made goods—kimchi, kombucha and vegan cheese to start. Grain bowls dominate the menu: That One Bowl is a colorful mix of quinoa, pesto kale, watermelon radish, roasted pumpkin seeds and a turmeric poached egg, while the Miso Bowl is a little more hearty, with jade rice, cabbage, carrots, shredded chicken, ginger chickpea miso and spiced almonds. A selection of tartines abound—be sure to try the freshly made chia jam with tahini, bee pollen and torn mint. And before you leave, a chocolate chip cookie—gluten-free and oh-so-gooey—is in order.
