The Corner Place

Sunday, April 16, 2006 11:14 8 Comments

Ahh, in the greatest tradition of cannibalizing my own articles for other sites, here is a recent post from my site about our lunch yesterday.
I was eating here, taking pictures and thumbing notes into my cell phone, when I realized Daily Gluttony already wrote up something about The Corner Place exactly one month ago to [...]

Traditional Northern Indian Fare at Gangadin, Studio City

Friday, April 7, 2006 15:33 6 Comments

The first thing that strikes me about this unassuming little Indian restaurant, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Studio City on Ventura Place, is its chic simplicity. Gorgeous and fragrant arrangements of white Casablanca lilies decorate the room and little sprays of freesias adorn every glass-topped white linen table.
Gangadin is a delightful neighborhood [...]

Yanusa Sushi

Since discovering Yanusa back in February, I have spent many a night pondering whether or not to write a review. I’ve Googled the restaurant to check for any reviews; none.

Wat Thai Market

Well, I finally made it out to the Wat Thai market on the weekend. It’s a pretty, serene place of stalls and picnic tables alongside a Buddhist Temple. The food here is fairly basic, and I have to admit, I wasn’t feeling too adventurous, so I stuck to the foods I know. The Pad Thai [...]

A: K. spent a portion of his childhood in Indonesia. Ever since he got back, he has searched long and hard for the perfect plate of nasi goreng and other gems of Indonesian cuisine. We’ve tried The Banana Leaf in the Farmer’s Market, Ramayani’s in Westwood, and had good food at both; recently [...]
