Ricky's Fish Tacos
1400 N Virgil Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90027
(323) 906-7290
I was so excited after having eaten here this afternoon that I had to rush home and write this review. My gal and I have been on a quest for the best fish taco in Los Angeles (among many other foods of course.) Before today I think we both would have claimed that either Senor ( Read more... ) -
Lamb and Feta Sandwich from Papa Cristo's
Papa Cristo's
2771 West Pico Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90006
(323) 7370-2970
I've been checking out my new neighborhood restaurants since I moved but only ended up at Papa Cristo's after Mr. Bento turned me away for not having cash. This turned out to be a fortuitous turn of events as on my way home to make a sadsack turkey sandwich I happened upon Papa ( Read more... ) -
Tom Kah Dumplings from the Edendale
Edendale
2838 Rowena Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90039
(323) 666-2000
The first time I went to the Edendale, I found it to be a fancy-pants type of establishment. I still feel that way, but after having visited for the second time last night to celebrate East of Borneo's first year as a magazine, I now have a slightly different take on things.
First of all ( Read more... ) -

Pastrami Sandwich from Punalu'u Bake Shop in Hawai'i
Punalu'u Bake Shop
Route 11

When on a perfect vacation in Hawai'i it is important to do and eat as the locals do. So, of course that mean eating pastrami sandwiches on Hawaiian sweet bread on the way to Volcano's National Park. Before watching Kiluauea do it's crazy thing we stopped for some lunch and unnecessary ( Read more... ) -

Los Angeles, CA 90011
(213) 742-6677
While waiting for the concert to start at the Natural History Museum last Friday (a rock concert in a museum?? What's next? Paintballing at the Opera??) My comely companion and I needed a bite to eat and Tacos El Gavilan across from USC rated high on Yelp. What we encountered ( Read more... ) -
Chicken and Vegetable Meat Pie from Lucky Baldwins
Lucky Baldwins

Pasadena, CA 91105
(626) 795-0652
http://www.luckybaldwins.com/iweb/
Lucky Baldwins just recently opened up a third location on East Colorado Blvd. In Pasadena but my allegiance lies with the original location on Raymond. It remains a beacon of authentic, divey british pubishness in a sea of douchey clubs. It also ( Read more... ) -

LAMILL Coffee
1636 Silver Lake Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90026
(323) 663-4441
I try to avoid this place as often as possible. For one thing, it's quite expensive. For another, the place is always filled to the brim with the most beautiful people you've ever seen. Not good for one's self esteem. That said, the coffee and chai are both excellent. I ( Read more... ) -
Pork Belly Sliders from Animal
Animal Restaurant
435 N. Fairfax Ave.
Los Angeles, CA 90036
(323) 782-9225
So many animals. We ate so many of them. They were all delicious, from the hamachi salad to the chicken liver on toast to the foie gras biscuit, but I was especially looking forward to the pork belly sliders. What's not to love about the fattest part of one of the fattest ( Read more... )
