Meatless Monday: Vegan Happy Hour at STREET

Chefs Kajsa Alger and Susan Feniger just launched a new happy hour at STREET in Hollywood, which showcases the vibrant flavors of their globally-inspired kitchen. And all of the bar bites can be made animal free, perfect for Meatless Monday.
Dishes include: Japanese fried chicken (or tofu) bites called tatsutage with yuzo kosho sauce, spiced potato samosas; "laundry day fritters" made with red bean and rice and topped with hot sauce, crema, and scallions; and Feniger's famous kaya toast smothered with coconut jam, soft egg, dark soy and white pepper all are on the HH special list for $6.
Now for the important bit -- the drinks. $5 tipples are rarity in this town, even in L.A.'s best dive bars. But from 5 p.m.-7 p.m., beer and wine come for a five spot at STREET. Well, on weekdays, that is.
And here's another gimme that you don't see often in L.A.: valet parking will be discounted to $5 during that time, so you don't lose your savings on parking -- or a parking ticket for that matter.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
