About Mensch Bakery:
Mensch Bakery is where passion for baking meets uncompromising quality. Founded by Yoav Rogel, our bakery was born from a love of authentic flavors and a desire to bring something truly special to Los Angeles. From the very beginning, Yoav set out to raise the standard of baked goods in the city by sourcing only the finest ingredients and crafting recipes that highlight both tradition and creativity.
Every visit to Mensch Bakery is a sensory experience — the aroma of fresh bread coming out of the oven, the sight of golden, flaky pastries, and the first bite of something made with care. From rustic baguettes to delicate, mouthwatering pastries, our creations are designed to delight and inspire.
We believe that baking is more than just food — it’s about community, warmth, and sharing joy. At Mensch Bakery, we’re proud to offer more than baked goods; we offer a taste of craftsmanship and heart in every bite.
About Lamalo: Cafe by Mensch:
Lamalo on Pico is a modern kosher café and bakery in the heart of Los Angeles, blending California freshness with the flavors of Israel and the Mediterranean. Part of the Cafe by Mensch family, Lamalo has quickly become a neighborhood favorite for its creative menu, inviting atmosphere, and commitment to quality.
Our chefs draw inspiration from the vibrant market culture of Israel, crafting dishes that celebrate freshness and bold flavors. From hearty shakshuka and avocado toast to inventive sandwiches, crisp salads, focaccia pizzas, and signature comfort dishes like our “100-layer lasagna,” every plate reflects a balance of tradition and innovation. Pair your meal with our robust coffee program, cold-pressed juices, or smoothies — and don’t miss our bakery selection of croissants, babka, cookies, and elegant desserts.
Lamalo is a trusted choice for the community, offering both dairy and pareve dishes prepared with the highest standards. Guests love the warm, relaxed vibe — perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or simply enjoying coffee and pastry with friends.
Both Mensch Bakery and Lamalo are Glatt Kosher under OK supervision.
