Ratio Espresso
LAMILL's espresso blend combines coffees from Ethiopia and Guatemala.
Valrhona mocha
Espresso comes with house-made Valrhona chocolate ganache and steamed or cold milk.
Curator’s note
Craig Min's father founded a wholesale coffee-and-tea business in 1991, and Min, who renamed it LAMILL, opened this Silver Lake room in January 2008 as the company's first shop. Michael Cimarusti drew up its opening food menu, and the same year the room turned up in Kirsten Everberg's series Looking for Edendale.
The Coffee
A Hario cold-drip tower stands at the end of the bar, and Japanese iced coffee, drip and café au lait sit beside an espresso list that runs from cortado and flat white to a Valrhona mocha. Decaf comes two ways, Decaf Ratio and the darker Decaf Obscura, both Mountain Water Process.

The Vibe
Rubbish Interiors, the studio of Scott Mangan and Nick Bianco, turned a small office building into LAMILL's Silver Lake room in 2008, and teal and caramel armchairs now pull up to white tables under brass lanterns and white-shaded brass chandeliers. Glass partitions on wood posts split the seating over a polished concrete floor, and the white counter runs under a deep white soffit and a black ceiling.
