Cafe 153 - Los Angeles, CA (DTLA)

Work bro and I were hungry and picked our spot to eat. Sadly, it was cash only so we decided to come to Cafe 153 to try our luck. Well, luck was on our side because they took credit cards here. Finding the cafe was not easy at all. There was no sign, and totally a hole in the wall. If it wasn't for the boss lady outside chatting with customer, I would have never found it.

BROKEN MOUTH | Lee’s Homestyle - Los Angeles, CA (DTLA)

Work wife heard about Broken Mouth somewhere and really wanted to try it. Since I didn't bring lunch, I told her we should go check it out.

Cafe Gunul 2 - Rowland Heights, CA

On one strange occasion, slave girl and I caught our friend walking out of Cafe Gunul 2 when we passed by the restaurant. She told us they had the best kimchi pasta, even better than the ones in Koreantown. Errrr, say no more, we are in!

Nguyen’s Kitchen - Orange, CA

Foodie friend Charlie and I went to a movie in Orange and when we got out, it was pretty late and we were hungry. After searching around, we found Nguyen's Kitchen with no expectations.

Manna Korean BBQ - Los Angeles, CA (Little Tokyo)

Slave girl and I were meeting a friend for AYCE Korean BBQ, but no one really knew where to go. Then slave girl remembered Mana. I, on the fail side, never noticed Mana even though I was up there for sushi before. Ok, let's go.

Green Tomato Grill - Brea, CA

Slave girl got a Groupon deal and it was going to expire. I was hesitant to go because with a name like Green Tomato Grill, it didn't sound like somewhere I would be interested in eating. Well, I didn't think I had a choice, lol.

Goshen Cuisine - Los Angeles, CA

I was meeting a friend for lunch at work and somehow it got expanded into a group crawl. The group wanted to try Goshen and since it was new to me, I had no objections.

Chicken Factory - Los Angeles, CA

After our initial meal next door, I decided to lead work crew to try some chicken here because you know, fatty being fatty. Who doesn't like fried chicken anyway?

Seoul Sausage Little Tokyo - Los Angeles, CA

Ever since this one time slave girl told me she was having lunch at Seoul Sausage, I have been thinking about eating there. I finally convinced work wife 2 one day to go with me even though she was moaning and bitching about it due to her broken body part. It was OK because once we arrived, everything was fine and happy. I think she was just hangry.

White Rabbit Truck - Los Angeles, CA

Say what?! White Rabbit truck was in front of my work! Well since I don't see food trucks often by my work, I must try it.

Pistachio Kitchen - Monterey Park, CA

Slave girl and I did a quick drop by during dinner time. It was definitely interesting since we didn't know what to expect.

Marugame Monzo - Los Angeles, CA

I wanted to go to little Tokyo for lunch, co-worker wanted noodles, what a good timing!?  After we arrived the area, we saw ramen shops and noticed this one udon place. Well why not, udon we went.

Soju Belly - Garden Grove, CA

Crazy late night fun continued and the group decided to come to Soju Belly after eating so much food for dinner already. Slowly walking through a dark ally, we found the restaurant with a bouncer outside. Yes! No kids inside!

ALEXANDER'S STEAKHOUSE - Pasadena, CA

Restaurant front

After I read a post about Alexander's from one of my food blogging site, I was convinced I MUST try this place before I die. Since I don't know when I would die, I gathered bunch of victims including slave girl to share this experience with me.
