Hi @JeetKuneBao,
We tried Kasih, and I have zero interest in returning, but maybe they were just off nights. Still there are too many great restaurants and unexplored places for us to want to return right now.
Where in Boston ?

I wasnāt wildly impressed by Kasih, but it was good enough that Iād give it another try.
Ramayani claims to be Indonesian, but the menu seemed all over the place.

Market is closed? It would take me a half hour to get to Simpang. Banana Leaf is serviceable
I has been 16 years i canāt remember . There were a couple in Chinatown for example

They used to operate a Malaysian market on site as well. It was 1/3 market 1/3 deli 1/3 Malay Lunch counter. I believe they remodeled a year or 2 ago and itās all restaurant. Someone correct me if Iām wrong

Yea Iāve been there a lot. I was acting surprised that the market is closed. Guess it has been a while

Iām surprised no oneās mentioned Borneo Kalimantan Cuisine yet. On searching this site it seems like FTCers are a bit tepid about the restaurant but Iāve always enjoyed it when I eat there. Iām also not a huge Michelin Guide person but I was gratified to see that they gave Borneo Kalimantan Cuisine a plate mention.

Oh, around Trejos et al. I thought you meant, like, the world. Indonesian and Malaysian is so thin on the ground in LA I thought anything was up for grabs.
Very disappointed to hear about the market at Simpang. It was one of the only places I could find different curry powders.

Okay, had Trejoās Breakfast Burrito this morning. Gone are the really crispy potatoes, replaced by not so crispy tater tots (probably more cost & labor efficient) and there wasnāt a lot of tortilla strip crunch. Also, I think Danny must be a heat guy because they had really hot sauces in the beginning, not Holbox hot, but hotā¦ well not no more. Everything is more tailored to a mainstream customer base. I get it. Iām not mad at them. Itās still a good burrito, but if youāre a real burrito head it wonāt give you the warm & fuzzies.
Eggs, Cheese, Bean Dip, Salsa, Taters, Strips
ā¦My boo got Chorizo in his.
I donāt trust the Avocado, so I just ordered a 2oz side of Guacamole just in case it was bad. It wasnāt. Plus a side of some kind of Creme Salsa sauce.

Roti look legit, maybe slightly underdone.
Reasonable
Vs. the average, Sidecarās cappuccino is better than Sidecarās donuts
I still think LA lacks a proper comfort italian american place. Jon and Vinny go too high end. When I finally get fired (which is never) i know exactly what kind of place to open. And I already did it all in early 90s Boston. Guess itās not much of a take

Iām a big Sidecar fan. But I think the quality of the coffee and espresso drinks depends heavily on the barista. The Torrance espresso drinks have not been good on my visits.
Which location makes the outstanding Cap?
