Pizzette - Culver City
Ugly Drum pastrami pizza was surprisingly awesome. The pastrami was so unctuous and provided a nice smoke flavor along with the nice Mozza crust. Just excellent.
Tam’s Noodle House - San Gabriel
#79 combo with shrimp egg flat noodle was as good as advertised. The wontons were perfection and the noodles has a nice bit and gailan? was still crunchy. My only gripe is the brisket was a little tough. But the wontons are so fucking good that I bought some frozen ones to take home.
Angry Egrett Dinette - Chinatown
Short rib banh mi and the biryani burrito were a pleasant surprise. Not going to dethrone any of the heavy hitters in its respective genre, but still tasty nonetheless.
Da Vien - Little Saigon
Ice coffee with egg is good but not nearly as good as FTC favorite Phin Smith.
Bánh Cuốn Lưu Luyến - Little Saigon
Bánh cuốn đặc biệt
Bánh cuốn thit nuong
WeHo Sausage Co - Culver City
The marquis - lamb merguez burger and fries, the ranch here is extra tasty. Fries were decent, some crispy and some a bit limp, which I actually enjoy crispy and limp fries.
Bageloo - Diamond Bar
Mochi twist donut is still my favorite here. I also had a Basque cheesecake which rivals the one at Republique.
Maccheroni Republic - Downtown Los Angeles
Still slinging excellent pastas. Grab a tiger tail from DonutMan across the street after.
Agnolotti di osso bucco
Bianchi & neri
Yang’s Kitchen - Alhambra
Strawberry smoothie was awesome
Lynda Sandwich - Little Saigon
Grabbed a dac biet banh mi and it was pretty damn tasty, if they used better bread this might one a top contender for best banh mi. I had Ba Le right before and they are hands down the best so far and I haven’t found one better.
