Here's Part 3:
A-Won Japanese Restaurant, 913 S. Vermont Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90006
This place is known for their big bowls of rice topped with colorful fish roe or chunks of fresh sashimi. the bowl was humongous; like it could have been a comfortable hat for a bear... Is this not a work of art???
Beer Belly, 532 S. Western Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90020
My friend and I stopped by here for happy hour before heading to dinner. Apparently their duck fat fries are too delicious to miss! As a lover of french fries and all things fried, I had to try them! You can definitely taste the duck fat flavor in the fries, and the duck skin cracklins on top are a nice fatty crunch on top.
Tahoe Galbi, 3986 Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90010
Whenever I visit my friend in Los Angeles, I make her take me to All You Can Eat Korean BBQ. I mean, they have places like this in the East as well, but it's just not as good and just not as CHEAP! What they say about happy cows living in California must be true. The meat just tastes better and fresher here. There are so many options to choose from and each place has their own little pluses, but this place is my favorite thus far!
Mastro's Steakhouse, 246 N. Canon Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210
We went to this famous chain steakhouse for a goodbye dinner for a friend, and it was delicious! Everything from the steak, to the sides, to the dessert, was so good! OMG that butter cake... It had a bit of a crust, but the inside was moist and it was all topped with vanilla ice cream and a raspberry sauce. I found some pinterest recipes, so I will be trying to recreate this really soon!
The Yellow House Cafe, 234 S. Oxford Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90004
JJ took me to the most adorable little cafe I have ever been to. It is literally a yellow house, complete with a courtyard and multiple rooms and floors. Every space in this house is filled with tables, chairs, and sofas for customers to lounge in. I have never seen a place like this around me, so it was pretty cool to see. I hear these kind of cafes are all over Korea, but considering I haven't been there in probably 10 years, I wouldn't know!
There is one more California post left... Yup! Just when you thought, DAMN this girl ate a lot in a week, there's one last place that I went to and absolutely fell in love with. I would move out to California just to eat and work there! Stay tuned...
