Our first full day in LA, we set out for the Farmers Market for breakfast. What started out as a true farmers’ market over 70 years ago is now a conglomeration of food vendors, with a few produce stands thrown in. We wound our way to the back and discovered Bob’s Coffee and Doughnuts.

A Farmers Market institution, Bob’s award-winning doughnuts come in a dizzying array of flavors.

Dave opted for an espresso and a chocolate caramel nut doughnut. It was, “nice and crunchy from the nuts, very sweet, and BIG.” Yes, he enjoyed it.

I passed on the doughnuts and went with a smoothie from a nearby stand. I had been craving a smoothie ever since Santa Barbara, but this one was far from satisfying (hence the lack of photo).
On our way out we saw a sign for a true farmers’ market which sets up outside the Farmers Market twice a week, and just happened to be coming the day we there at noon. So, after a lovely visit to The Getty, we drove back and bought some fruits and vegetables for dinner that night.
