DOWNTOWN— Brigham Yen reports that Broadway's continued transformation will include the soon-to-open Figaro Bistro, a popular Los Feliz bistro and bakery. The nearly built out space needs a little bit more finish, some furniture and equipment, so a late Fall opening is likely. There's also plans to bring back a marquee inspired by the original 1940's one. [BY]
WEST LA— Westside gastropub Freddy Smalls is finally starting brunch on Sundays starting at 10AM, featuring a new coffee cocktail and standards like waffes with grilled strawberries and corned beef hash. [LAist]
