TLT Food opens November 1

Leave a comment

The Lime Truck opened a brick and mortar version in Westwood (that’s near UCLA). The official opening was November 1, but I had a sneak peek of the restaurant and some of the menu items. 

The Westwood community will definitely enjoy TLT Food.  The fans of the Lime Truck will recognize the menu, and appreciate there’s a place to sit, enjoy the food, and pair the food with a glass of their favorite alcoholic beverage.  For the non drinkers, TLT Food serves Coca Cola products, and of course, the famous Limeaids.

TLT Food is located at:
1116 Westwood Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA  90024

Metered street parking and pay lots are available.  Cash and credit cards are accepted. 
Follow them on twitter at @TLTFood.

Congratulations, Daniel.  Great job with TLT Food!

Started as a community project by Venetian Janet Gervers the AKFF launched 1st Fridays & has promoted Venice & Santa Monica since 2008 http://www.abbotkinney1stfridays.com/
 
Company Overview

The Page 1 status Google Blog published by a Venice local of over ten years is catering to a Los Angeles audience interested in the urban beach lifestyle in Venice & Santa Monica. The blog was started to help build the First Fridays of the month event back in 2008 when the businesses on the boulevard needed help to expand low attendance of about 50 people. The effort was in conjunction with the Venice Neighborhood Council and the Venice Chamber of Commerce.The event became successful with about 1000 in attendance and the blog expanded to cover all of the Venice community and eventually Santa Monica.

Nov 2: Westchester First Fridays

Leave a comment

It’s that time… the first Friday of the month!  The ever popular “First Friday” in Westchester is the hottest spot in LA for food trucks.  Check out the trucks, and this band:

They do bluegrass and folk, and a little country western, as well as original material. They’ve been performing at the Melrose Trading Post, the Brentwood Art Fair, at Long Beach & Manhattan Beach venues as well as Anaheim & West Covina. Stop by, say hi… and if you like their music, give them a tip!
Here as a sample of the music:
