1. Pressed-tin ceilings, white-tiled walls, black-leather barstools. 2. Excellent hamburgers and homemade onion rings. 3. An eat/drink bar where they're genuinely happy to have you do either or both.4. Oversized windows open to the street. 5. Wine/beer lists are short but sweet.6. Pabst Blue Ribbon in the can. If you feel like showing off.7. It's loud. 78-83 dBs. 8. The kitchen's open until midnight.9. Whole-leaf Caesar salad.10. Balky kitchen. Mussels can be delicious. Or they can contain a bizarre excess...

I have to admit, the first time J. and I drove by here, we scoffed at the NY-named bar and subway tile look--cheeseball. However, Bowery's location between our two employers made it a convenient place to meet for an after-work drink without resorting to a more club-like Hollywood venue, and I'm glad we did.

Finding myself on the corner of Sunset & Vine at Hollywood and absolutely starving, what better thing to do than to check out some diners & restaurants.

Another recently open hang out/eatery joint amongst the Sunset and Vine neighbourhood development. It's right next to Magnolia. Like Magnolia, it's more of a bar/lounge (the bar takes up half the space) but they open for lunch with a limited menu. I got the Salad Trio: truffled chicken salad, potato dijon salad, shrimp salad with slices of baguette. I like all 3 and was glad that they taste different from each other. The truffle flavor is strong so it made the chicken salad unique tasting. It's quite a good walking distance workday lunch spot. Worthy to go back to try their other stuffs.
