Cold-pressed juice purveyor Pressed Juicery has moved into a second Brentwood location, taking over a former Pinkberry at Gorham Avenue. The shop there will also dole out Freeze, a dairy- and gluten-free juice dessert, and has hopes to open next month. The Country Mart location will remain as well.

A Cafe Gratitude op-ed
The LA Times weighs in on the recent Cafe Gratitude fiasco, wherein vegans are upset that the owners of the restaurant chain (who now live on a farm) have decided to start raising and eating animals.

Anarbagh Indian adds beer and wine
Looks like Los Feliz Indian staple Anarbagh is going the beer and wine route. That's per this ABC license, which shows owner Matab Ahmed applying for a permit to serve inside the restaurant. The license is now active, which means there's another option for drinking and dining in Los Feliz as of this very moment.
