Had the brisket Banh Mi cuz they were out of fixins for the Italian. For some reason, I enjoyed this much more than in the past. I think Gjusta might be pickling the veggies longer/more intensely. The contrast in flavors were more pronounced.

Anyway, really surprised about no line at Eggslut. Was avoiding it today thinking the about standing in line on Pacific.

Pie thoughts?

They were both great, they weren’t too sweet, the sweet potato was nice and think and i really liked the candied orange on the pumpkin pie. They don’t quite beat out their fucking carrot cake though.

Carrot cake and olive oil cake is what I had to settle for.

Ouch 0 for 3 at gjusta, i guess there are worse things than having to settle for their carrot cake.

I need to try their banh mi again, how was the olive oil cake?

:raised_hands::raised_hands::raised_hands:

Fuck I want carrot cake now. And that purple pie.

And prime reeeeeeeeeeeb.

I thought the olive oil cake was great. Just a hint of the scent of olive oil, moist, sweeter than the carrot cake but not cloying, and was great with a cuppa Joe. My wife didn’t care for it.

I think this is the third time trying the brisket Banh Mi. The first couple of times was eh - but this time, the brisket tasted richer and the contrast of flavors was greater. I split the Banh Mi with my wife - she gave me half of her falafel sandwich. Not many places in the world one can get those two sammies at one sitting.

Nice looking slutty (funny btw) egg sandwich. Could the cheese have been a little more melty?

It could have been a little warmer, but i’ll give them a pass as it was only their 3rd day open.

Oh no!!! Now someone else has to learn about “with au jus.” LOL.

Is that an inside joke?

It got raised occasionally on CH. “au” means “with.” There are worse crimes :slight_smile:

I’m waiting for someone to do the frozen delicacies Bang Bang Bang:

Bulgarini Gelato - Bulgarini Gelato Vino Cucina – Bulgarini Gelato - at the top of Lake Avenue in Pasadena. Down Lake to Washington, then east on Washington to…

Carmela Ice Cream Co. - http://carmelaicecream.com/ - in Pasadena. Then a bit further east on Washington to where it hits Sierra Madre Blvd, and east on Sierra Madre to…

Mother Moo Creamery - http://www.mothermoo.com/ - in Sierra Madre.

This could then become a Bang Bang Bang Bang by next heading southwest to…

Fosselman’s Ice Cream - Welcome to Fosselman's Ice Cream Company - in Alhambra.

But that might be overkill.

How was the Macau roast pork?

You crushed it this weekend!

Honestly scrolling down I thought I would see Kang Kang, Fosselmans, Banh Mi My Tho, Savoy, The Hat, Grill Em All (not all of them…that would be impossible…or is it???)

No shame with food stains on a white shirt.
I do the Barstow In-N-Out On The Way To Vegas thing, get stained and walk thru Bellagio and Chandlier Bar like it ain’t no thang
