Studio Cafe

If you should find yourself working at 3575 Cahuenga Blvd, home of several post production facilities as well as a dive shop, you might want to pick up a snack from the Studio Cafe, located on the 4th floor. Their tuna melt had wonderfully sturdy and crisp bread, creating a very stable foundation for the tuna. They didn't have the intense buttery flavor of the Sitton's melt, and the bread was a bit dry. The cheese was melted perfectly, and the bits on the edge had a tasty crispness. Now for the tuna salad: It was a blend I haven't seen before. It had a lot of vegetable bulk mixed in, including carrot, onion, and I believe some celery and or green onion. It wasn't really creamy, but it held together well. I'd have to say I'd rather have more tuna than all of the filler. Some of it would have enhanced the flavor, but I found the high vegetable to tuna ratio overpowering. This detail reduced this melt to a mid-grade melt that doesn't completely impress.
