Winston Pies, Planta Cocina Coming To MDR

Thanks to a sharp-eyed reader, I went by the new Boardwalk MDR shopping center at 4625 Admiralty Way in Marina del Rey to see what was going on.  A small notice of nonresponsibility posted on one of the vacant shop fronts spills the beans that mercurial dessert specialist Winston Pies is moving in.  And right next door, in a commodious space in the same shopping center, work is fast and furious on a massive Planta Cocina.  Planta Cocina is a concept from the rapidly expanding plant-based eatery Planta with a menu of burritos, tacos, quesadillas, and ensaladas.  (Thanks Trevor!)

Yogurtland Bids Adieu To Brentwood

I’m hearing from readers that Brentwood’s beloved icy treat shop Yogurtland appears to have vacated its longtime location at 11706 San Vicente Blvd.  I’m not sure what happened, but as real estate prices rise, the busy retail and food section along San Vicente appears to be undergoing a transformation.  Kreation recently skedaddled, and so did Hollywood old school fave Vicenti, both with big splashy replacements on the way.  I’ll keep my eye on the space to see what may develop. 

(Thanks Stephen!)

Planta Landing In Brentwood

Ever since Pizzicotto and Kreation moved out of their respective spaces at 11758 and 11754 San Vicente Blvd. in Brentwood, people have been contacting me demanding answers.  Thanks to the clever investigative work of a reader (Thanks Eric!), I may have an answer.  Eric discovered that the two spaces will be joined and become the home to Planta.  (Their website does confirm a Brentwood location, but doesn’t give an address, so I don’t have confirmation on this.)  Planta restaurant group has locations across America and Canada and promotes a celebration of ‘the power of plants” with a 100% plant-based dining concept.  It looks like another location is coming to Marina del Rey as well.
