Change Brewing at Echo Park's Coffee Pot

The Mohawk Bend institution has a new owner and a new menu. A bit of a makeover is next.

We've heard a lot from the EastsiderLA about the changes at Chicken Corner's Chango.

Well, the Coffee Pot at Mohawk Bend also has a new owner and some new aspirations.

In just a few weeks, Erin West has tweaked the menu, adding more "crunchy, hippie" foods to the vegan and veggie fare.

She's also pouring Cafecito Organico roasts.

West hails from the northwest--Ballard, Washington.

She said she was part of the "Ballard Mafia," a group of merchants, restauranteurs and club owners who set the tone for the avante edge of the community.

She's very excited about her move to LA and her first solo venture.

"There's a lot of people looking for places to eat around here," she said, pointing to the new PETA offices across the street.

West bought the Coffee pot from Nina Bruckner, who's said to be off to Europe for a break.

is located at 2201 W. Sunset Blvd. 90026.

I will be doing a more formal re-launch at the beginning of May and am finalizing a menu with more grab-and-go salads, crepes, and other lunchy items or then!

I recently heard that the scientist found the world had not warmed up in the last 15 years and theyRead More did not know what happened to their predictions.

The fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution states that: the right of the people to beRead More secure in their persons,houses,papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized "this fundamental right has a tense relationship with sobriety checkpoints, at a sobriety checkpoint, drivers are necessary stopped with out reasonable suspicion, and may be tested summarily and with out probable cause, Thus the constitution would prohibit people from being stopped without a search Warrant or at least without probable cause that they have committed a crime; however, the Warrant requirement only attaches should the search be unreasonable and the Supreme Court, as shown below, decided that such stops are not unreasonable under certain circumstances, The United States Supreme Court found properly conducted sobriety checkpoints to be Constitutional, While acknowledging that such checkpoints infringed on a Constitutional Right. Although the U.S. Supreme Court has found sobriety checkpoints to be constitutionally permissible, ten states (Idaho,Iowa,Michigan,Minnesota,Oregon,Rhode Island, Texas,Washington,Wisconsin, and Wyoming) have found that sobriety roadblocks violate their own State Constitutions or have outlawed tHEM.

Again, if you see a checkpoint you can still legally turn around or change directions to avoid it asRead More long as you are not already in it. Learn your rights. But don't drink and drive. Call Northeast LAPD to go to take the LAPD Community Based Police Academy course. It's free. Of course, Northeast doesn't let others know about it. You learn your rights a lot of other information they would rather not have you know. Call them and ask how to attend.

The fact that they are outlawed in some states AND what the constitution says , they areRead More UN-constitutional whether you can avoid them or not, same as checking your citizenship up to 100 miles north of Mexican border (as you simply drive down the road), no probable cause etc.

The 125th at Logan was great. Parents, students, former teachers, some alumni from the 1940's. ButRead More what is most essential to keep in mind is that Logan, a public school, has educated generations of Echo Park children, natives and immigrants, English-speaking and those learning English, respecting the diverse cultures of families that have made their homes in our community. It's a public school that serves all children, those with children with disabilities, those who have behavior issues, all children. It turns away no one. It does what public schools are supposed to do; it educates the public. And it welcomes parents to participate in decision-making bodies that can influence their child's education.
