Dong Il Jang – Koreatown

23. February 2008

1 Comment

There are literally hundreds of choices for Korean BBQ in k-town. Some I would imagine are much better choices and may be more non-Korean friendly than others. There are the charcoal grills at Tahoe Galbi, the loud party all-you-can-eat atmosphere at Manna, the swanky ChoSun Galbee or the divey Soot Bull Jeep. But one of [...]

Mr Pizza Factory – Korea Town

You’re either gonna love this place or hate it. Pizza purists will scoff, foodie adventurers will embrace it, and Pulitzer prize winning food writers have written about it. But whatever you think, Mr Pizza Factory is unique. And why shouldn’t it be? With a slogan like Love For Women and its upbeat and young Korean [...]

Shatto 39 Lanes – Korea Town

7. January 2008

2 Comments

Shatto 39 Lanes is a bowling god amongst a city of bowling alleys turned entertainment centers. There are no LCD screens playing music videos, no DJs spinning music, no silly animations on the score boards, no glow in the dark bowling. This is truly one of the last remaining old school bowling alleys left in [...]

K-town, from gloom to boom

9. November 2007

I’ll be the first to admit, I take my safety for granted. I was born and raised 20 min east of downtown. I’ve been living in LA proper for the past 12 years and I’ve never ran into any trouble on the street. A friend of mine was mugged after leaving the HMS Bounty about [...]

Welcome to the first edition of Taco Tuesday. LA is a great place for Tacos. People dedicate entire blogs to the LA Taco lifestyle. On almost any day of the week, into the wee hours of the morning, you can get a taco somewhere. Whether it’s a concrete taco shack sitting on a corner or [...]

So it’s been a pirate themed week for me. Went to check out Pirates 3 at Century City Mall on Sat. What a great place to catch a movie. They have a great new food court area and the theater wasn’t crazy busy either. Then, last night, I checked out the R Bar. I thought [...]

Jaragua – Opening Soon

17. April 2007

Very excited to see another food option right around the corner from my place. Jaragua, a salvadoran restaurant, seems to be ready to open soon. They’ve got the dining room all laid out. The entry is decorated with antiqued wagon wheels. It doesn’t look like your typical pupusaria. This looks more like a sit down [...]

Sushi a go-go

22. January 2007

Most people can all agree who has the best steaks in town, the best Italian can be narrowed down to just a couple of places, and even most can agree that Water Grill has the best fish. But the battle for the best Sushi is a never ending debate. Someone’s favorite sushi may be someone [...]

The best chicken in LA

4. January 2007

0 Comments

In my opinion there are two great places to get fire roasted chicken in Los Angeles. Which one is better, I’ll leave to you. Pollo a la Brasa is one. Their Peruvian style rotisserie chicken is fall off the bone juicy. For $7.50 you get a half chicken, rice and black beans (or fries). They [...]

There’s a New King in K-Town

4. November 2006

0 Comments

The King of New York Pizza that is. Good pizza is hard to find in k-town. Larchmont Village is the closest good pizza place, but I am outside of their one mile delivery radius. (By two blocks.) So it wasn’t very often I had pizza. Unless I had the forethought to call ahead and pick [...]
