Looking at our Facebook feed anyone would think you were all obsessed with food! Our most popular posts this week have been “Where Are the Best Places to Get Your Fish & Chips in LA?’, ’14 Posh Places for Afternoon Tea in Los Angeles’ and ’11 Charts About Tea That British People Will Understand Instantly’!
I want to know where to get the best Liver & Bacon in LA – I am a little tired of fish & chips being on every British menu – the only place I know that serves a decent plate of L & B is one of Hollywoods’ oldest restaurants, Musso & Frank (6667 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood, CA 90028) so please send me your recommendations to eileen@britsin.la and I will gladly check them out.
Foodie fans must come and join us for our weekly Breakfast Club at Cecconi’s in West Hollywood – they honestly do serve one of the best Full English Breakfasts in town – although I am on the fence with their tea-making skills, their coffee is excellent!
Everyone is welcome and we really do have people from all walks of life and all ages – it is a great way to make new friends without all the fuss of an evening event. Sandra Cowley shared a great photo of our beloved Mayor of Breakfast Bernard Skibben with one of our younger members – enjoying the latest issue of the British Weekly!
If evening events are more your thing we have our bi-monthly Pub Quiz at the Pikey with the dynamic quizmaster team of Rob Pait & Marina Paganucci on Tuesday April 26th – full details can be found on our Facebook page. If you need a team to join get there for 7.40pm. Not all questions are British based; red-blooded American Mr Pait will make sure of that! The Pikey are actually listed as one of the best places to get Fish & Chips in LA too, so come hungry!
Britweek is almost upon us too – starts April 23rd through to May 8th; lots of flying of flags all over SoCal – make sure to visit britweek.org for their full calendar of events. I am really looking forward to attending the Mr Musichead British Invasion Exhibition on April 26th , tickets are free but make sure to RSVP asap as it is bound to sell out – info can be found on the Britweek site.
Lots of other amazing British themed events from Shakespeare to Street Art – if you are participating and have an event you want to promote to our British community drop us a line at britsinla@gmail.com.
We also want invite you to participate in our weekly Meet a Member feature – you don’t have to be British or have a glamorous job, we want to share your story with our members. If you are up for it or would like to nominate someone else contact us at britsinla@gmail.com for more details.
Look forward to hearing from you, especially those of you with Liver & Bacon recommendations!
Cheers!
Eileen
