Brentwood – Early World

I love the fact that no one goes there, it gives me plenty of places to park my hummer. If you're paying under $12 for an omelet, you're a peasant.

And your pallet for breakfast foods is more advanced than mine? You can attempt to be as snooty Brentwood as you want about it, but fact is, people go to the places I listed, and go back. I bike by Early World every day and it's always empty. Maybe it's the quiet you enjoy, because the food was as blah as the prices were ridiculous.

Some people are fooled into liking things because they're located in a certain neighborhood and the product has a higher price tagged to it. I find that funny and I'm glad I don't have to live with that handicap.

I disagree I have found the food consistently better at Early World than the other places you have mentioned.

Swingers - I stopped going there when they never could get my order right and on multiple occasions I couldn't get them to take my order, or bring me my check in a reasonable amount of time. I don't care what the price of eggs is someplace if the service is lousy.

Cafe 50's - I lived 3 blocks away from there for 5 years. The eggs were never really very good and on the weekend the wait for the place can be an 15 min to an hour. Even though I lived in the marina for the last 5 years, I still drove to early world rather than wait in line there to have my eggs greasy.

Delores Cafe and Rae's Diner I don't go to so I won't comment.

But really the issue I raised is, can the people who work at those places make a decent living. I know for sure the people at Early World can because the same core group of staff have been there for more than 10 years. Is that true of the other places? If it is I stand corrected. If it's not, then every time you get $1.00 off your eggs maybe you are are not paying enough?

Swingers, Delores Cafe, Cafe 50's, Rae's Diner - All have better food than Early World, and with "Walmart prices."

I go to Early World at least once we a week and love it every single time. I have been going there for 10 years. The food is always perfect, the service personal and warm. Yes it is more expensive than breakfast at McDonald's, or Denny's but if you want impersonal service and mediocre food, don't go to Early World go to those places. You get what you pay for. Quality food prepared properly costs money. The entire country seems to want perfection at Walmart prices and then is surprised that those around them can't seem to make a living because the people who serve you every day (restaurant employees, gas station attendants, house cleaners) can't earn enough to live off of in a city like Los Angeles. Early World is not expensive, its the value of the US dollar thats falling.

This place IS crazy expensive. I wish there was an actual diner around this area.
