Go Get Em Tiger's Los Feliz location is a fairly sparse operation. It shares a wide, wooden patio with a new location of McConnell's Fine Ice Cream, but the shop itself is nothing more than a counter with an espresso machine and a bare-bones kitchen. The only seating is outdoors, and it would be easy to miss the fact that there's a full breakfast and lunch menu being served from that tiny kitchen. But chef Ria Dolly Barbosa's personality shines through brightest with the more inventive dishes, such as a savory rice porridge with a soft egg, topped with winter greens and shot through with chili oil and sesame; or a vegan frittata made of garbanzo beans and served with vivid pickled beets. She also has a way with ramping up standard sandwiches and making them intense and wonderful — the GGETBLT with house-cured bacon and pickled green tomatoes is especially memorable.
