we can always go to goldilocks or some shit.
just playing, i dont mind driving up.
Then I'm pretty sure that guy's just a dick. I thought the same thing too last time I went. Guess he takes his job seriously.
lmao.
We should all hit up Glendale, Glendale is dope.
I live a little east of the 57, but it's still LA County!
by about 10 miles
I used to live in Monterey Park though. So I count.

Radius of 13 miles from where it says Los Angeles on Google Maps.
EDIT: Make that 10 miles with a special exception for Santa Monica.
Have you eaten at Taco Zone? If so, how does it compare? Because I love TZ's al pastor and can't seem to break away from it.
Exactly. I mean, look at this douche:
What they gonna do? post a list of zip codes that are technically City of Los Angeles?
All of L.A. county is considered Los Angeles. No problem with that.
And this is where, if I may ask?

I am. Sorry I sucked. I was super tired.
I did better with the more recent Fishing Resort one, I swear!

Hopefully, by this time next year, I will be living down in Los Angeles.

Monterey Park/Alhambra is where many Chinese immigrants end up when they come to L.A., and the population makeup/businesses around here reflect that.

Went to Little Tokyo over the weekend.
I think Shabu Shabu has become one of my favorite foods ever.
'Shabu Shabu House' is a must.

i love el pastor if done right. has to be crunchy.
never been there. where is it?
This is very true.
Too be honest, Monterey Park kind of turned into a shit hole. I still adore it dearly because most of my friends live there, but wow.

on the 210 the "san bernardino county" signs start in Upland, along the 60 in Chino. I think Buena Park is where the "orange county" signs show up, but I think of the physical location of the 91 is where I think of the cutoff
Truck outside the Vons on Alvarado after 8:30 pm.
Nothing glamorous, obviously, but they turn out a good brisket and al pastor.
My memory's a bit rusty but, the Vons in Echo Park between Alvarado and Glendale?
Im no stickler for this stuff, nor do I care really, but I lived in Whittier for a while and I was walking distance from the "County Line". Whittier then La Habra was in OC. So, I guess Whittier is still LA county?

Anyone know of any decent Chinese food in west la? Driving to Monterey Park just isn't feasible on a weeknight..
Aww yeah! Looks like I'm taking a drive down there after the next NWA wrestling show.

Can't say I've ever been to one in West LA. My ex and I would usually head out to Chinatown or SGV if we really had time.
This place has been in waiting in my Yelp Bookmarks for a while though

If any of you Echo Park types enjoy the taste of beer, Sunset Beer Co. is a relatively new establishment, but a great place to get a huge variety of ales, stouts, IPAs, etc. Tastings, beer of the month club, they got some stuff goin' on.
Also, just ate at the brand newly opened Red Hill for the first time this past week. Pretty good. From the guy who runs Local, which I enjoy occasionally.

Yang Chow in Chinatown (downtown). Slippery Shrimp.
I will await a thank you PM. http://www.yangchow.com/
edit: reservation is a must on weekends.
I shop at that Vons 2x a week at least.
There's a little Mexican place called Tacos Mexico at the intersection of Alvarado, Glendale and Berkeley. They have really good al pastor there.

I have too. The chinatown location is a bit better. Original cook, I imagine. owner is always there. Loves wearing his Laker tie on big gamedays!

i'll take a trip there once my car gets fixed.
Last time I ate at Tacos Mexico, I enjoyed it. But after finding Taco Zone, I never went back.
I consider it the City of Los Angeles. It seem some folks in this thread disagree. I even got called a douche. :shrug: I give a pass to the Santa Monica area, I suppose.
I consider the 710 to be the cutoff to the east.

They have valet for like $1 or $2. I suggest making sure you make a right to get into the place, making a left can be a bitch there.
And like I said, reservation if you can on weekends. You can be waiting over an hour, otherwise. God I miss the shrimp right now.
I could sleep in this all night. It's amazing when you walk in there is not one table without this dish on it.

Are you talking about Eagle Rock Brewery? Good beer there. They usually have some food trucks come by too.
