Hi @thechez5,

I was thinking about that, but am ruined by the amazing Fried Rice offerings at Dragon Beaux we just had! :blush: If you get a chance, definitely give it a try next time you’re in the area.

If you like spice do the Nasi goreng Jagger at simpang, delicious and out of this world although quite spicy.

The crab fried rice at Ruen Pair is the only fried rice I’ve had in this town that tempts me to stray from my general diet.

One general comment I would make is that fried rice in most of LA sans SGV and some restaurants in thai town lack the wok hei that takes fried rice over the top of a housemade dish that I could make myself at home. Sadly, most places just mix together ingredients on a hot pan.

I love kimchi. And I love fried rice.

But I just don’t love kimchi and fried rice at Baroo.

you’re telling me a shrimp fried this rice?

i’m not big on Daikokuya’s ramen, but their fried rice slaps. they use the same fat as in the ramen to fry–really luxurious mouthfeel like any good Chinese fried rice that starts with lard.

nasi goreng jagger at Simpang is worth any regrets the next day.

one of the Northern Cafe’s in Westwood used to serve a challenging spicy fried rice before the chef left to go home to China, and they revamped their menu into all mediocre things

(btw if anyone has spicy fried rice suggestions please let me know)

If we talkin’ all comers in the L.A. fried rice category (not just shrimp fried rice), then an additional shout-out must go also to Ikkousha Ramen (with locations in Torrance, Little Tokyo, and Costa Mesa) for their Gold Chahan, with lots of wok hei.
