I am a pretty big fan of truffle. I love truffle oil, truffle honey, truffle cheese, anything with truffle I will probably eat it. So it was my surprise when I found out about a place called Truffle Brothers. I have driven past this place several times but they close at 4:00 PM.
What kind of place closes at 4:00 PM and doesn't open on the weekends? Turns out this place isn't just a place to go grab some nice food and retail items. They actually supply the restaurants of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Miami, New York and Dallas with imported Truffles from Italy. So selling food is just a secondary business, not their primary. This made a lot more sense now.
These last few weeks have been all Holiday weekends, so my girlfriend and I have been getting off early on Friday and having an extended weekend. This is when the light bulb started to turn on, OMG we can go to Truffle Brothers. It was only 1:00 PM. So guess what, we went to Truffle Brothers.

Their menu of Paninos and Insalates
We ordered the Piccante, Tartufo and a nice Charcuterie plate
Piccante - Spicy salame, olive tapende, with fontina cheese. The olive tapende really gave the bread some awesome texture.
Tartufo - Prosciutto di Parma, truffle sauce and pecorino. This was my girlfriends she only gave me one bite. That's how good it was.
Charcuterie plate - If you already haven't done it, start dipping your cheeses into honey. It is life changing. I wish someone would have told me sooner.
After we finished eating, we went back inside to order some dessert and take some pictures of their stuff for sale. They have a retail set up and sell a lot of yummy things.
Look at this sexy thing - Fresh made Cannoli.
Truffle sauce, Truffle salt, Truffle honey, Truffle everything.
Fresh cut cheese
Love me some Parmigiano Reggiano
Some good lookin' Meats
White Truffle Mushrooms! - I've actually never seen a Truffle Mushroom in person so this was really cool. Can anyone tell me how you're suppose to cook and eat these?
Italian Sodas
I hope you have enjoyed our adventure to Truffle Brothers, if you are in Los Angeles, please try to stop by. The brothers are very friendly and the food quality is absolutely amazing.
