LUNA Bistro & Cafe Coming To MDR

There’s a large banner hanging on the front of the space at 1181 Mindanao Way in Marina del Rey, once home to legendary Jerry’s Deli, and most recently Kalaveras. The banner lets us know that LUNA Bistro & Cafe are setting up housekeeping at the once illustrious address. LUNA Bistro & Cafe hails from Bakersfield, and according to What Now, who has the whole skinny here, we are promised a “fusion menu [that] features pasta, burgers, sandwiches, tacos, coffee, and Mexican classics such as carnitas”.

Pura Vida Miami Coming To Beverly Hills?

A reader has done some detective work and believes he has uncovered that Florida health and wellness brand Pura Vida Miami is moving into the former home of The Farm of Beverly Hills, at 439 N Beverly Dr.  While I cannot absolutely confirm this, the recent window paper, which doesn’t name the new business, does contain the phrases “Another Day in Paradise”, “Health is Happiness”, and “From Miami with Love”.  These phrases point to Pura Vida‘s mission statement on their website.  What Now Los Angeles also has this story about a Malibu location.  If true, these would be the first West Coast outposts for the healthy eatery.
