This little spot is one of the coolest places I’ve been to in Venice, Los Angeles. It’s kind of small, yet there’s enough space for people to feel very well accommodated. Kreation has the vibe that places near the beach have. It has a very relaxed mood and it’s perfect to go with friends after actually spending time at the beach. I had lunch there and then went to this iconic part of Venice where there are these little canals and people go take pictures.
Kreation, as the name may suggest, is all about the unexpectedly amazing flavors that can result from creating mixtures with organic ingredients. It’s a place to go very deep into the journey of appreciating natural flavors.
Although the food is undoubtedly incredible and the menu is rich in variety, the focus at Kreation are the smoothies. So for first-time goers, I’m telling you that you won’t have had the whole experience without the smoothies. And the reason why they surprised me that much is because although LA is full of places where smoothies are a thing, the ones at Kreation have something that makes them unforgettable.
From the menu, any salad is special, and I think there’s also a pasta dish to try. And please, ask for the chlorophyll water!
