Giant cubic ice sculptures by '60s icon Allan Kaprow will be re-created all over the city this weekend, thanks to LACMA.

Pancake Lasagna at the Foundry

In another amazing advancement in hangover cuisine, The Foundry on Melrose introduces a new "Hair of the Dog" Sunday brunch with live jazz, Grapefruit Bloody Marys and...Pancake Lasagna. A maple-bechamel sauce holds together each layer—it goes pancake, sausage, scrambled egg, cheddar, pancake, maple-glazed black pepper bacon, egg, cheddar. Bravo.

411: Apr 27, 2pm, then every Sunday beginning May 11, The Foundry on Melrose, 7465 Melrose Ave (between Gardner and Vista), 323-651-0915
