Everything was delightful. It was our second time :)

For some reason, burgers like this (specifically: thick burger, thick brioche bun, and ideally pickles but ok if not) are like a good friend in the city, or a long-term Spectrum promo - impossible to find here, and everyone else in the country seems to have plenty of it.

The few I’ve seen are either only served on mondays/tuesdays (Chi Spacca); only in the back of the restaurant and/or after 6 PM (Mother Wolf; Old Man Bar); at fancy restaurants (Hermon’s, Camphor, Pasjoli) or at places that close before 3 PM (All Time). WHERE CAN YOU GET A BURGER LIKE THIS TO GO? Super bonus if you can also get a side of non-thin fries, but I’ll settle for burger only.

The Arepas Stand is opening up a permanent location on 12906 Venice Blvd! Their pop-ups are usually found at the Mar Vista Farmer's Market, Playa Vista Farmer's Market, and Hollywood Farmer's Market on weekends.

In the 6 decades that I have lived here, I still haven't managed to find both.

Maybe I just haven't asked, because it could an off menu item? (Son-in-law Eggs)

BURGERS NEVER SAY DIE is hosting a burger eating competition on August 1st and if you want to go watch the competition a $15 ticket includes a burger, fries and unlimited Skyduster Beer for 2 hrs - not a bad deal :) Tickets here - https://biite.club/products/the-bnsd-burger-eating-competition

Anyone have a recent opinion on Backbone (Montrose) and if it's appropriate for a birthday dinner?

Hi. We are hosting a small weekend party at one of the Annenberg canopies. Back on the beach catering is expensive and not exciting ($50/person for hot dog, hamburger). Looking for recommendations for good, casual beach food like sandwiches, salads, etc. Thinking Ggiata but wanted to put this out there to see if there are some better options.

What are some perks of living in LA? Get both exclusive deals for 2 MLB teams! Any takers?

Hi everyone,

I’m back on Reddit with another weird food sourcing question, lol.

I’m working with a science nonprofit to do an experiment that requires using ground up eggshells — like, a trash bag full of eggs’ worth. We technically have it in the budget to buy eggs, but I’m wondering if anyone knows of or has a relationship with a restaurant or bakery where I could pick up a big batch of eggshells. I’m located on the west side of LA but could pick up from anywhere in the LA area.

You might wonder why I can’t just save my own eggshells over time — the answer is that they need to be as fresh as possible and preferably all come from one batch to reduce the likelihood of introducing contaminants.

Let me know if anyone has any leads or ideas in general…… thank you!!

I know most grocery store has them but who has the best?

Does anyone know where I can buy a bottle today 30 mile radius of Simi Valley right now? ANY TIPS welcome

If you can deliver top dollar will be paid. Or please let me know where to pick up myself asap

none of the ones i’ve been to have it and i’ve been dying for this since we got back from japan! thanks in advance!

Hey everyone, we have some friends visiting LA soon and we want to take them to some places that really show off what LA has to offer.

Looking for spots where the whole experience is great: good food, cool atmosphere, nice views, unique setting, etc. Basically places where you walk in and think “yeah, this is very LA.”

My wife and I are lacto vegetarians, so ideally somewhere that has good vegetarian options (doesn’t have to be a vegetarian/vegan restaurant).

A few places we were already thinking about:

1. Elephantè in Santa Monica: amazing vibe/view, but food was just okay IMO

2. Casaléna in Woodland Hills: looks beautiful, haven’t been yet

3. Bacari 3rd St: love the atmosphere

4.Killer Noodle in Sawtelle: not fancy, but the Tokyo dry ramen is 🔥

Open to anywhere: LA, OC, Malibu, South Bay, Ventura, Santa Barbara, etc.

What are the places you’d take someone visiting LA that would genuinely impress them?

Had one of the better soft shell crab dishes I've had in LA at Very Thai in the Westfield Century City. Any reccs for other LA spots with great soft shell crab?

I moved to LA this year and still think about this dish I used to order. I don’t think I have seen this on any menus at korean restaurants I’ve been to since moving here or even in Seoul. Does anyone have any recs?

Pasadena/NELA area

I’m very pregnant and it’s very hot and cones aren’t cutting it. Any grocery stores with particularly impressive freezer aisles so I can stock up on different desserts?

I have no food aversions, I would die for a frozen custard situation right now but also open to classic ice cream, gelato, bars, sandwiches, etc. Thank you

My son is very sick and only wants to eat soup as he thinks its the only food he can eat without throwing it up but i know certian soups can have high fat or high sodium or be acidic so where can i get a healthy soup for my son that wont upset his stomach and help with his nausea and loss of appetite any and all recommendations will be greatly appreciated

I live in Marina del Rey, and I’m on a mission to find the best chilaquiles on the Westside.

I’m looking for the real deal. Crispy chips that don’t immediately turn to mush, flavorful salsa (roja or verde), perfectly cooked eggs, crema, queso fresco, onions, and if the place has great add-on meats, even better.

I’m not looking for an overpriced brunch spot serving a tiny, aesthetic plate. I want the kind of chilaquiles that make you wonder if someone’s grandma is in the back cooking.

My mother in law makes great chilaquiles but she’s all the way in Downey. Where are your go-to spots on the Westside???

First of all, I love food hall. I just like try different things in open setting.

I have been to a lot of different food halls and my choices are Hangar in Long Beach and Rodeo 39 in Garden Grove.

I am really down for trying different ones. Drop suggetsions below.

I might get flamed for this 😂 but I grew up in the South/Midwest where LJS was everywhere. Does anyone know any places in the Central part of LA that serve that style/flavor of fish? Been feeling nostalgic recently and craving it! Big plus if they do delivery.
