The Trails  2333 Fern Dell Dr., Los Angeles, CA 90068

 The Trails is the type of place that reeks of hippie Californians.  It's near the entrance of Griffith Park and it's really just a shack-like establishment that offers a few picnic type food. All the food there is vegan and veggie friendly...I actually don't think there is any meat-products or unhealthy food there.  I was scanning the menu for something like chips or fries, but alas there were none.  Although there wasn't really much to pick from, the avocado sandwich actually sounded pretty delicious and very healthy.  It comes with tomato, red onion, alfalfa sprouts, soy cheese, soy bacon bits, and large heaps of avocado ($6.50).  While this is a fairly basic sandwich, it was really good and I felt like I had just come from a health retreat.  The sandwich was also very filling and definitely did not need chips or fries.  I guess these Californians know what they are doing!  Vivi got the chili ($6.75) and grilled cheese and said they were good but could have used more salt/flavor. 

This isn't really a restaurant or going out place, it's definitely a good place to stop by before heading into the park.  While I enjoyed my sandwich, it would have been good if they did offer more varieties of food and some tasty side dishes.  Total bill for 2 avocado sandwiches, 1 chili, 1 grilled cheese, 1 scone, and 3 Diet Cokes was $33.
