wirsthaus on la brea is a german bar that has vegan pretzels*, sauerkraut, and beer by the liter…not to mention a decent vegan sausage selection. it’s a great place to waste your afternoon and the contents of your wallet—-god knows i’ve done it. 

*i order the pretzel with beer mustard instead of sweet mustard, because i’m paranoid about honey.
