Once a dirt road, the 1.5-mile stretch of Wilshire Boulevard we call “Miracle Mile” is now home to iconic institutions like the LA County Museum of Art (LACMA), the La Brea Tar Pits and the Screen Actors Guild / AFTRA. Though it was originally designed as a commercial district catering to customers in cars, today a 15-minute walk takes you by Museum Row, bustling restaurants and Art Deco treasures. The development continues with major construction on museums, additional renovations and the Metro Purple Line Extension.
Contemporary art without attitude.
There’s something whimsical about Yuko Kitchen. The place teems with plant life; everywhere you look, something green peeks back at you. Fresh, exciting dishes, vegan desserts, hand-painted signs and twinkling lights. Order at the counter and take a seat. We like the Bowl Lito — rice bowl ingredients wrapped in seaweed — and the mint apple frozen lemonade. Out on the hidden patio, you’ll forget you’re in the middle of LA.
