Having the word Flaming in your name is just a set up for disaster…and now I’ll have a field day with that word. Ok, stripmall on Vine, looks a little sketchy, took me a while to get myself in Flaming Pattys door..but I finally did on a sunday afternoon. For me it was breakfast time [...]

Reasonable, decent, fast, simple, filling. These are the adjectives that I use to describe this beach bar located in my neck of the wooods. The burger is nothing special, but on a HAWTT beach day it is a fun place to grab a burger and beer and then hit the beach. They say they are [...]

This is why I try to dine at unique eateries…because places like this exist. If it takes [...]

Decorated like a Christmas zoo, this clowned out Mexican joint actually serves some of the better American Mexican food I’ve had in the area which isn’t saying much. The Mexican restaurants mid city pretty much suck.  If you like multi colored lights shaped like chiles buzzing around your head  then you’ll love the atmosphere here. [...]

#!*%!#!@, that is what I want to say to the guy that talked my ear off at Star of India….and no he was not dining with me. He was at the table behind me. I felt horrible for his dining partner, an old guy, who got about 4 words out during this clowns spew of [...]

A Philly cheese steak sandwich dive spot located in Burbank and my stomach feels just about as gross as Burbank is. I don’t get the name SOUTH STREET?!?! What I do know is this sandwich was a mix of Philly and South of the border and we all suspect that whoever is making the food is [...]

That means our soup is gross in Korean. I’m not well versed in Korean Sul Lung Tang and I’m going to assume that you aren’t either. This Korean soup is raved about on Yelp but I was thoroughly unimpressed. First of all, the place is kinda diaperish. There is virtually no atmosphere, I felt like [...]

These damn food trucks are all over the place. The Kogi truck is true Mexorean just like the east end of wilshire blvd.  I never wanted to be a fan of a food truck because there is usually nowhere to sit. So a buddy suggested we go and we drove TO the damn truck in [...]
