Adventures in La La Land: Main Street Ventura: City of Good Fortune
http://lalaland-adventures.blogspot.com/2008/05/main-street-ventura.html
Adventures in La La Land. Main Street Ventura: City of Good Fortune. Promoted as the ‘City of Good Fortune,’ Ventura is aptly named. This small seaside town, with its backdrop of rolling hills, enjoys sunny days (an average of 258 a year to be exact) and gorgeous surfing beaches. What really sets Ventura apart, though, is its vibrant Main Street - a rarity in SoCal where mall culture has sucked the life out of most small city downtowns. Anchored by the San Buenaventura Mission to the west, the area offer...

Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurants: Mission 261
http://lowendrestaurants.blogspot.com/2005/08/mission-261.html
Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurants. A browsable guide to cheap and delicious food in Los Angeles. Wednesday, August 03, 2005. Mission 261 [261 S. Mission Drive, San Gabriel. 626) 588-1666] joins New Concept and Sea Harbor as L.A. purveyors of ultra high quality dim sum. I personally preferred Sea Harbor to Mission 261 but these judgements will depend on what one orders and on personal taste (have only tried a few items at New Concept, but they were spectacular). We should rejoice that there are restau...

Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurantz - now with more "flava": July 2005
http://lowendrestaurantz.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurantz - now with more "flava". Thursday, July 28, 2005. After last night's extravaganza at Giang Nan (Shanghai/Jiangzhe magnificence, notes to follow) I am convinced that there is a universe of great eating in San Gabriel that is a fulltime job for a professional, not an amateur enthusiast like myself. Maybe these cats can help: okay noodle. They've just started but have had the good taste to link to the main Low End Theory. Blog Then again, recommendation of sushi buffet.

Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurantz - now with more "flava": Javan, Umenohana, Warszawa, Sea Harbor
http://lowendrestaurantz.blogspot.com/2005/07/javan-umenohana-warszawa-sea-harbor.html
Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurantz - now with more "flava". Saturday, July 23, 2005. Javan, Umenohana, Warszawa, Sea Harbor. The dust seems to have settled on my evaluation of the Persian scene with the addition of Javan to the Persian. Lists An interesting tidbit from Wikipedia - faloodeh. Is one of the oldest of all frozen desserts. Among L.A.'s high-end dining spots, Umenohana. Is certainly unique for its tofu kaiseki. Also a new neighbourhood, Beverly Hills. Warszawa is a fancy and delicious Polish.

Trust Me" says the whiteboard Bart Simpson presiding over the omakase-only sushi bar at Echigo. I believe it was drawn by Matt Groening himself). But who can you turn to for the best restaurant recs? I prefer to ask the experts - there's no substitute for scribbled directions to Best Szechwan. From the dude who actually hails from Szechwan province, or for eating ramen. A cut abo...

Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurants: February 2005
http://lowendrestaurants.blogspot.com/2005_02_01_archive.html
Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurants. A browsable guide to cheap and delicious food in Los Angeles. Monday, February 21, 2005. How hard must one try to eat Indian food where Indian people are? Furthermore, where is the elusive South Indian fare so different from the diluted Punjabi fare that constitutes "Indian" food in 99% of restaurants? Vada are lentil flour donuts, dahi is yoghurt. Awesome, though the yoghurt might have been more sour for the absolute Tamil purist. A giant papery crisp pancake exceeding...

Low End Theory's L.A. Restaurantz - now with more "flava". Monday, September 05, 2005. Guatemalteca Bakery, Yongsusan. I love to find a new place that is clearly a centre for the local community, and it was wall-to-wall Guatemalan. Today (on Beverly a little ways from Pico-Union. Not surprising given the excellent quality and value. Groceries, el cheapo baked goods and honest lunch plates; a Los Angeles about 7 miles and one universe away from the Westside.
