FYI: Interesting article over on LA Weekly about much needed changes and overhauls to Sunset Junction
"Silver Lake Neighborhood Council Says Sunset Junction Needs an Overhaul"
"The annual event has been a point of contention in recent years as it has grown in size from a neighborhood street fair to a bona fide music festival and the tension between the festival organizers and its neighbors came to a head at a meeting of the Silver Lake Neighborhood Council Governing Board last night..."

Saturday in Echo Park
Ran some chores in Echo Park last Saturday, and decided to swing by Two Boots to try out their pizza. Alas, they were closed (second failed attempt at getting pizza from there- first time we called about delivery they hadn't started delivery service yet), so we drove a bit further down to try out Lot 1 cafe, a little place we had walked past a few weeks ago during the Echo Park art crawl.
Pretty good experience, but nothing overall special. They seemed to be closing up, but when we poked our heads in, they were very nice and stayed open for us.
We had the roast beef and tuna salad sandwich with iced teas. It was a very pleasant meal, sitting outside, enjoying the weather and hipster-watching, and our waiter was very attentive. The ice tea was delicious, my side salad was very good as well. The tuna salad sandwich was ok- nothing to write home about (a bit heavy on the mayo, and the bread was a little dried out), but the flavors were good, and my husband's roast beef sandwich was middle of the road as well ( although I think he thought it was a hot sandwich when he ordered it).
Prices were average- around $23 for the two of us. In all, it was a pleasant lunch- I've heard really good things about their breakfast/ late night menu, so I'd be interested in coming back and checking those out. So overall, good experience, but I don't know if I'd be craving another visit for lunch necessarily.
After wards, we walked down adn checked out Bandit Gallery, a new gallery space that's just opened on Sunset. They had their first group show up in the front, and were getting ready for some benefit event that night in a back patio area. Need to go back and check out how they grow in the coming months!

Exposure Photography show at Mix, Meet and Mogul
I've always wondered what that mix, meet and mogul place has been about down near Sunset and Griffith Park Blovd (where the Silverlake farmers market is every Saturday). Here's a neat event that is going on tonight and every friday through March.
"Exposure finds band/music event photographers Koga, Benjamin Hoste and Simon Cardoza showcasing their best work every Friday for an entire month at Meet, Mix, Mogul in Griffith Park. Although there will be live performances from some of the fabulous bands they've shot, consider the event to be the photographers' equivalent of a residency.
Meet, Mix, Mogul is located at 1519 Griffith Park Boulevard. The weekly event begins this Friday, February 27th at 7:30 PM. It is free before 8:45 PM and $5 thereafter."

Mardi Gras Party
Tuesday Feb 24 (8:30pm)
The Echo (1822 Sunset Blvd, 213.413.8200) map
$8
"The Echo hosts an evening of Mardi Gras-themed revelry with four raucous local acts. Ozomatli's GRAMMY-winning Wil-Dog Abers steps it up with the lively, rhythmic Mentiritas, having poached session musicians from Beastie Boys, Cava, and Plastilina Mosh. Ollin, comprised of identical twins Randy and Scott Rodarte, fuse punk rock with Mexican folk, throwing in Fat Tuesday-inspired dance music to keep up with the theme. La Santa Cecilia hybridize various forms of world music for a classically Angeleno vibe, while the wild, 20-piece Killsonic cap things off with their eclectic and enjoyably demented marching-band tunes. - Tanja Laden"
