I have to admit that LA has more delicious food than our Bay area village, and the price is also low. Close to Hollywood, there are many Chinese immigrants, which creates a very diversified food environment there. The East and the West are competing for each other. It's probably the favorite food eating city in the United States, except NYC. If there is more competition, of course, there will be more patterns, more varieties and lower prices; Many famous restaurants in other places often choose LA as the first place to expand their territory. For example, Haidilao in China, 85 degree C in Taiwan, lady m in New York

Our journey to La started with our best friend winwin's home. When she arrived the night before, winwin was very clean. She had a European style kitchen show to show us the snacks she bought for everyone; And then I said, tomorrow morning, I'll make you pancakes for one minute. Wow, I'm looking forward to it. One minute pancakes are said to taste very good.

One minute simple pancake, in fact, it really takes only 30 seconds to make. The main ingredient is a ready-made soft taco pancake from a supermarket.

It's no exaggeration. It's definitely not too far behind the authentic ones sold outside. I think as long as there are eggs, the taste is almost the same. What's more, the quality of food is guaranteed; There is no need to buy additional tools.

In fact, the breakfast that day was very rich, in addition to homemade pancakes, salted duck eggs with rice porridge, all kinds of vegetables, fruits. After this meal, we were not too hungry until tea time.

Lady M http://www.ladym.com/ , know this elegant style of dessert shop, or in dearpig's New York food blog（ http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_ 59e8e8ef0102evkc.html)。 At that time, I was very interested. Later, I searched the Internet and found that his family had a branch in LA. http://www.ladym.com/los-angeles/

So, by the way, lady m was included in the itinerary this time. There is a little difference between LA's store and NYC's, but there is no shortage of Mille Cr ê PES. The La store is easy to find, and it's easy to park nearby.

We arrived at the gate at about 4 p.m. and we had a look at the long line! His store is very delicate, but very small. It can only accommodate about 10 customers at a time. Take out and sitting in the store to eat, is to line up different teams. If you eat in a shop, if you don't order, there will be fewer people and shorter teams. We made a comparison and decided to eat in the store, but we still waited for more than half an hour. Then we also find that there are more Asian residents in line. It's mentioned in dearpig's article that someone ran into Leehom Wang in the New York store. I wonder if it's the advertising effect of this. They also think that some stars will come to La store.

When it was finally our turn, the waiter in the store greeted us very warmly and told us that many varieties had been sold out.

In the end, we decided that the classic brand Mille Cr ê PES must come, and green tea Mille Cr ê PES should also try. Citron Mille Cr ê PES, which originally wanted to taste orange, was not available, so we had to have another strawberry Mille feuille and Mimosa cake.

We sat on the seats and looked at the counter. They were busy cutting all kinds of cakes and serving them. Each one was really beautiful. Waiter joked, don't fight for the cake.

Mille Crê peshttp://www.ladym.com/portfolio/lady-m-mille-crepe/ The signature lasagna cake. It's made of about 20 ultra-thin curries, folded with light cream and baked with caramel. The taste is soft, mellow and not greasy at all. I like this one very much. It's worthy of a signboard!

GreenTeaMille Crê peshttp://www.ladym.com/portfolio/lady-m-green-tea-mille-crepe/ Green tea lasagna cake. Green tea powder is added to each layer on top of the signature cookie. The overall taste of the finished product is more bitter than that of green tea, which makes the sweetness less obvious and highlights the taste of green tea.

Many people's favorite is this one, but I always feel that green tea doesn't match with croissants and cream, which is a bit disharmonious. I'm not saying it's not delicious, it's still delicious; I just feel that the aroma of green tea and milk egg is a little contradictory to each other's advantages. However, maybe people are looking for this kind of impact, the impact of mix and match, and the taste is more special.

StrawberryMille Fe uillehttp://www.ladym.com/portfolio/strawberry-mille-feuilles/ Strawberry lasagna. It's really a lot of thin leaf like pastry, with fresh cream and fresh strawberries, and a thin layer of sponge cake as a foil. The taste is not particularly novel, but the whole is very delicate, the taste is very good. It's great that the cream doesn't hold down the aroma of strawberries!

M imosahttp://www.ladym.com/portfolio/mimosa/ This is the least impressive one we ordered after slicing. Only when we look at it as a whole, the shape is quite special, like a pile of square blocks, which is why I point it.

The main theme of this cake is vanilla, soft vanilla sponge cake, with his main fresh milk sauce. The taste is very fragrant. Compared with other models, it's a little sweet and a little dry. But it's not bad.

The four dishes we ordered were served separately. Waiter also brought us four more plates, which was a very good service. Each one didn't disappoint us, they all belong to a relatively good level. Of course, my favorite is the original Mille Cr ê PES. I hope I can eat it again in the future and take it home by the way.

After lady M's afternoon tea, we are going straight to boiling point, a hot pot restaurant for dinner. How do you think it's full again? We need to wait. Taking advantage of the waiting space, we went to the snack bar next to his house and put some things in it first.

Yiran & Grill http://www.yelp.com/biz/yiran-and-grill-monterey-park , sell a lot of snacks, and barbecue, the menu looks good, the price is also very approachable. Ordered duck neck, cold skin and mutton kebab.

Duck neck taste is very authentic, and a large plate, eating very enjoyable. It doesn't taste too heavy to eat empty. It's just right.

The cold skin is delicious, and the sauce is also very good.

It takes a long time for the string to be baked. The last one is served, but the meat is delicious. If you are not trying to restrain yourself, I would like to eat more!

We've just finished eating here, and it's our turn to boiling point there. Time is just right. It's not wasted at all.

Boiling point, Taiwan, http://www.yelp.com/biz/boiling-point-monterey-park 。 His main job is Stinky Tofu Pot, which sounds very different. This shop is recommended by winwin. She said that she never eats stinky tofu, but only this stinky tofu. She thinks it's very good.

As a person who refuses to eat stinky tofu, although winwin said it was very exciting, but the psychological barrier still can't be ruled out, I still can't accept eating stinky tofu.

Fortunately, the main hotpot shop, in addition to Stinky Tofu Pot, there are all kinds of other types of hotpot. Seafood pot, pork pot, vegetable pot, pickle pot, etc... So, at last, I locked the pickle pot, and all three of them went to the stinky tofu "Stinky pot"

Hotpot is a separate small pot, and it is prepared in the kitchen. It will take a little time to be served after cooking. You can order a drink and chat with friends before. But the drinks in his family really didn't feel very good. The feeling was that the sugar water was too sweet. The white gourd tea and my sour plum soup are all like sugar water. We can't eat them all. The drinks of this restaurant are really not recommended, but hot pot is good!

Each pot of material is very enough, the cabbage stew inside is very tender and delicious. Although there is no staple food, but a pot of hot pot can eat full or even support, soup is also very light and delicious. In addition to a lot of stinky tofu, there are pig blood cake, seafood and pork slices in the stinky tofu pot. You can add more soup and rice noodles. You can go down and cook if you are not full.

My kimchi pot doesn't have a strong kimchi flavor. The hot and sour pickles just neutralize the pork flavor in the hot pot, so they are very appetizing. I have ordinary tofu, seafood, various vegetables, transparent cabbage and an egg. The soup is delicious. I finished all the soup at last.

Several of us, almost all of the hot pot to eat the bottom of the sky, and then holding the stomach to meet the out. Do you think this is the end of us? Haha, no, we went to take out cold dishes before we had to go to cipher's house for the night.

Yunnan G ardenhttp://www.yelp.com/biz/yunnan-garden-san-gabriel His family has a rich selection of cold dishes, and many times his reputation far exceeds his family's delicious hot dishes. A few years ago, this shop was very popular. All the Chinese in La had eaten it and they wanted to eat it. In recent years, because there are too many Chinese restaurants, the popularity of them has weakened a little, but they are still very famous. Originally, on the day when we were going to arrive, winwin planned to buy cold dishes from his home after work to make a midnight snack for us, but later because of the busy day, he didn't have time to go. It happened that the shop where we finished the hot pot was not far from Yunnan Guoqiao garden, so we went to buy cold dishes by the way.

The white jade chicken feet of this family are unique, and the taste is absolutely the same as that of China. In fact, there is no error in other cold dishes, but there are few shops selling white jade chicken feet here. Looking at these ten or twenty kinds of cold dishes, are we all a little out of control, just buying one? There are duck necks here, too.

Because we really didn't have a stomach to eat too much, we had to buy white jade chicken feet and pig ears in the end. The aunt who packed the dishes was super good. She filled our box full, and it couldn't close the lid at all!

Later, we ate half a box of chicken feet at midnight, and left half a box for later lunch and dinner. This white jade phoenix claw is really good for midnight snack. It has a refreshing taste. It's not greasy after eating. You can eat it slowly for a long time, and then you don't feel guilty.

The first day after a round of eating, the next day is still not idle, get up early in the morning ready, first run out to eat breakfast. In fact, the cipher family already lives in the area between LA and SD, but it's not too far away. It's a big La border.

B ruxiehttp://bruxie.com/ It specializes in savory waffles. In fact, there are more traditional sweet taste, but to this store, we must try salty taste. From a variety of chicken, beef, Turkey, salmon, tuna, there are vegetarian options. You can also add eggs and butternuts to each one.

We all ordered country sauce & egg bruxie, fresh sausage meat with fried eggs. I also asked for more butternuts. In fact, this year I love to eat avocado. I even have to add sandwiches at noon at work. Because the food with cream fruit is very delicious; It's not to mention that avocado is a wonderful vegetable. It's said that eating one a day to 90 years old has no cardiovascular problems.

Waffles are fresh and fragrant. I like salty food more than desserts, so I love this salty waffle. Waffles themselves taste very light, not sweet or salty, just baked very crisp, not hard at all. For example, beilie never eats the side of toast or pizza. Anyone who eats hard pasta thinks that she can eat all the waffles in this family. In the filling part, the sausage cake is delicious, the meat is very tasty, but a little salty. The eggs are delicious, and the light cream is just right.

Xianhuafu is really delicious, and one is full. We had a good time. Finally, we suggested to waiter that they open a shop in Northern California. At present, bruxie only has a branch in Southern California.

Breakfast waffle, let us have no obvious hunger until the afternoon. Of course, the reason why we didn't eat on time is also because the traffic in LA is really terrible. We are going to the airport at 6 p.m., so we have to go to the airport at 3 p.m., and we are going to have breakfast and dinner there.

It's really a coincidence that we choose the restaurant for dinner. Not long before departure, I saw Kristina Bazan, a fashion blogger, introduce LA's delicious restaurant. http://www.kayture.com/2014/04/where-to-eat-in-los-angeles.html 。 Her description of the sugar fish attracted me. I personally love Japanese food very much, and I like the traditional Japanese sushi restaurant very much. In fact, most Japanese restaurants in the United States are westernized. There are a lot of mayonnaise and cream fruit in the cuisine, which will never appear in the authentic Japanese restaurants. Sugarfish is said to be more authentic in western style. People who love authentic sushi will never be disappointed.

Suga rfishhttp://sugarfishsushi.com/ , which is still a chain store. There are several stores around LA, and Marina del Rey, which is very close to the airport, also has a branch, which is just right for us to eat in the past.

The chefs of sugarfish are all trained in traditional Japanese sushi. Their idea is to pursue the freshness of food materials and abide by tradition. The only difference between traditional sushi restaurant and traditional sushi restaurant is the difference of storefront; They don't make it live in front of customers, and the kitchen is backstage. The front desk of the store is a more Western-style bar, which makes the people who come in for dinner younger, and we can have a good chat without feeling constrained.

If you don't know what to order, or if you come here for the first time, you can consider some sushi selected by the chef of his family's trust me menu. According to the amount of sushi, you can choose medium trust me, less trust me Lite, or Nozawa trust me, which will make you full

I didn't have lunch at noon. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally decided to have the most Nozawa trust me. $40 set meal. In addition to the organic bean appetizer, there are nine kinds of sushi to try. http://sugarfishsushi.com/press_ images/SampleDinnerMenu.pdf

First of all, Tuna Sashimi and Ponzu souce are served. In fact, it's different when you eat it. It's very fresh and tender. It has no taste at all.

Albacore sushi, salmon sushi, snapper sushi. When they are served, the taste has been strictly matched by the chef, and there is no need to add extra sauce. Individual can see a drop of just right soy sauce. Rice parts are crystal clear rice, soft but granular, very delicious rice. Sushi is delicious, delicious and fresh!

Yellow Tail Sushi, “Daily Special” Bay Scallops Sushi, Halibut Sushi。 With the above description, each one is still a perfect match; Plus the plate is very delicate atmosphere, eat very enjoy.

Toro hand roll and blue crab hand roll are all wrapped up, so they can't make a picture, so they put one as a representative. Hand rolls are also good to eat Oh, eat to the end are not enough look ha ha.

The sushi of sugarfish is really authentic and delicious in the United States in the near future. Although the price is more expensive than that of the western style, it's worth it, because you can see the difference in the ingredients alone. The fish here are as fresh as glitter, and each one is very carefully made, and the rice is too delicious. Compared with the top Michelin, there may be some differences. After all, the sushi pattern is quite regular; But the taste is good enough. I'll never regret it. I'll want to go again.

Even Nozawa trust me, which has the largest portion, will not make an ordinary person feel full, that is, he is not hungry, and then he will feel "Oh, full" after a while. When they make recipes, they are really just right.

After we got out of sugar fish, beilie and I went directly to the airport. La's spring outing was very successful, had a good time and ate well. So we decided that it would be good to take such a small trip every quarter.
