[microphage]

Yes.



Probably.

ALoha,

I'm more trying to get used to the smog/ozone levels than the thunderstorms. I'll welcome any wind/rain around here anyday!

That's what they tell me...we'll see if they let me in when I arrive (or not, if my reputation precedes me...).

The weather here in SoCali is getting to be WAY to hot. Im in the valley and the temp here has hit 100 degrees and above. Bakesfield is not that far from me so I know they are getting high temps too. I hope there is atleast one rainy day here before I leave to SXM..........:-?

Yeah, we're doing all that but I am getting bored. Even watching TV can get boring. <===I can't believe I just said that.

Cat says hi too. Best of luck guys. Hope to see you guys on the other side soon.

[Merozoite]

If you are really looking for a good place to eat and are willing to drive a bit, then I'd recommend going to get some King Taco (or KT as we like to call it). It has to be the one of the best places to get Mexican food in LA.

Here's a link with all the restaurants so when in LA you can find the closest one (probably downtown LA or P****ena). http://www.kingtaco.com/

Oh and get some In-N-Out burgers off of Panama Canal Rd. on the 99 South as you head to LA. Well that's the closest one to you, there's also one next to Magic Mountain on Lyons Ave. in Valencia (off the 5).

Good eating!!!

See you in a few

[stateofequilibrium]

If you are looking for a good place to eat in Los Angeles may I recommend Lawry's Prime Rib?

i agree with SOE. if you have time, go eat there... but go early, or else you'll have a 2 hour wait.

[stateofequilibrium]

If you arrive there when it opens for an early dinner you shouldn't have a problem getting a seat. And while you're waiting, help yourself to crackers and meatballs!

[FOID]

another place to hit up in LA is south central LA. go there around 3am at night... and play some alternative music in your car and see what happens! make sure to flick them off in LA. it means you're saying hi. :twisted:

Aloha,

It was 108 F in Bakersfield yesterday...but it's a dry heat ;)

108 degrees dry heat.. no biggie. it was 180 for the ozone levels!!!!

U don't happen to live in B'field do u?

Not that I don't appreciate the responses but didn't I only ask for: Sushi, Pho, Dim sum, cheap eats, and hole in the walls? :P


or is that your polite way of saying there are no good whatevers in SF and LA.?!

u'll be glad to know there's a in-n-out in bakersfield. I don't eat beef so I don't know what the big deal is about.

There's also a Sonic, a Long John silvers, a Carl's Jr, Popeye's among the rest.

Hey man, $40 for some delicious prime rib, two side orders, yorkshire pudding, salad and all you can eat meatballs is a steal man!

As for sushi, there's this place on Pico and Sawtelle called Hide, really good sushi. Though be warned, it's a cash only place.

dude, we're working with a med school budget here. but Hide sounds like a good hole in a wall... I might just have to try it.

Hide is wonderful though. Their hamachi positively melts in your mouth. And their catalina rolls are good too!

[FOID]

if you wanna go eat, go to little tokyo for sushi. they have some places that has very good quality sushi.

go visit santa monica if you have time... the pier is nice and so is promanade. but whatever you do, don't get in the water. santa monica's beach is the MOST polluted beach in los angeles. dirty beach and one specific dirty person that lives there

Best hamachi I ever had was...... here in Bakersfield 2 weeks ago! Surprising that they would have sushi that good here. Even better than the hamachi at Morimoto!

better than morimoto? woah... that's surprising. try nobu's restaurant in LA... i think it's overrated though

The sushi wasn't that great at Morimoto, it was more of the fusion stuff. He had this hamachi bi bim bop dish...that was good(the waitress said created was used in one of the iron chef episodes)! hummm Lobster was to die for...

I've got pics if you wanna hate me even more. I had to take out another loan just to eat there....

[stateofequilibrium]

I heard hamachi with jalapeno is supposed to be really good.

Don't worry, I'll be back in the States on Monday where I belong!

get with the program. Everybody from LA moved to NYC. So they renamed it LAYC... or LAY-C

There are a few good asian buffet places here that are descent priced for the food they give you. A place called L.A. Buffet has all you can eat seafood nights on fri and sat. They have diffeent varieties of fish, nice crab legs(my fav!), a mongolian chef, all the other chinese foods, and SUSHI(my second favorite!)

If your in the L.A. area then there are a lot of upscale and regular bars that are really cool to just kill time. Also you have Las Vegas and Laughlin close by....but im sure your all gambled out from sxm.


Coldstones, Ben nd Jerrys are the best ice cream places I have been to--just something about the taste.....:D

I agree...Santa Monica Beach is horrible....the water is seriously like 3 different colors...if you want to go to a nice beach go to Malibu....Though im sure the waters here dont compare to the ones in sxm.

L.A. Buffett? that's a horrible choice! If you really want to go to a really good buffett, go to universal city hilton. they have a buffet there that's close to 38 dollars but you have all you can eat lobster! it's one of the best in town. they have all you can eat sushi, prime rib, all types of seafood (from scallops to shrimp to king crab leg)... dessert, asian dishes, american dishes, etc. it's worth the 38 dollars.

humm should I listen to an AUC newbie or SOE's Island partner...

tough choice.

and anyways, I'm married so buffets are usually a bad idea for the wallet as the wife can't really chow down that much. Sure, I can hold my own but I've already gained enough weight from my Taiwan trip...

btw, $38 per person ain't no med school budget. It's more in Dr. G's realm.

[FOID]

damn, HE's my life partner. get that right. lol.

if you want to get some good chinese food for a good price, i suggest monterey park or alhambra. it's off the san bernardino freeway (10 freeway).

We are talking about the same L.A. Buffet right? The one in Northridge? plus the buffet only costs $13.00 per person. At $38.00 a plate im sure the food is one of the best you have tasted
