"Your 13-year-old little cousin is going to love Kitchen Mouse. From that name to the cutesy interior, this Highland Park spot might be adorable, but it’s also full of tasty healthy food that’s mostly gluten-free and vegan. The lunch move here is one of the bowls, but they also do breakfast until 3pm, meaning chilaquiles are in your future." - jess basser sanders, brant cox

"Highland Park’s vegan-leaning Kitchen Mouse cafe seems to be set for more expansion in the neighborhood, this time moving south along Figueroa to take over a former doughnut shop space next door to Taco Fiesta. Signage is up for the incoming project now, though so far there’s no formal word on just what to expect there. Late last fall, the group also took over the closed Mr. Holmes Bakehouse space around the corner on Avenue 59, repurposing it into a standalone bakery and catering operation." - Farley Elliott
