Sushi On Brand - Brand New Find

This entry is dedicated to fans of Sushi Today. I was extremely depressed last year to find my favorite sushi restaurant closed permanently. Where was I going to go for my spicy seared albacore? Apparently, nowhere. I found a couple more sushi places that had this on their menu, but they [...]

Is this even a restaurant?

Adana Restaurant
6918 San Fernando Rd., Glendale 91201
Lunch: $10/person; Dinner: under $20/person
The first time I went to Adana, I was told we would probably be the only people eating there. While a statement like that would usually make me wary of a new restaurant, it came from one of my most trusted eating buddies, so I [...]

The other day, I was listening to Ralph Garman (a native Philadephian) rant about how he wasn’t included in the list of famous Philadelphians at South Street. He claims that they had the best cheesesteaks outside of Philadephia. [...]

The Last Great Hamburger Stand

Fatburger.

I’ll say it again, Fatburger. The Last Great Hamburger Stand.
I sparked velvety dissention a while ago by soliciting people for their favorite burger joint, not a national chain. Of course, I violated my own criteria by throwing down for Fatburger, reasoning that even though they are growing through many states, and now even have an [...]

Smokin’ Ribs at Zeke’s Smokehouse, Glendale

It’s been a little while since I’ve been to a restaurant and I ordered BBQ baby back ribs - one of my favorites to make on my own. (The next time I grill out, I’ll post the recipe on here.) And little did I know that when I went to Glendale last weekend to meet [...]
