Yala

The Studio City room sits on Ventura Boulevard, which gives the Valley a version of Yala's Middle Eastern coffee idea. The Yala Matcha brings cardamom cream and brown sugar to the house matcha, while the fig and vanilla latte makes the strongest case for what the cafe is doing with regional flavors. Ventura Boulevard has no shortage of coffee, and what makes this one worth the stop is a flavor set nobody else on the street is working with. We would order the fig and vanilla and take the long way back down Ventura.
