Indulge! Massive Food Junkie!

Been collecting alot of food pictures like to share...

Went with Ginger to eat at a highly YELP review place

No make up or hair style, looking pretty crabby...

We went to a place called Liang's Kitchen in Arcadia, they have several locations. This one was closes near my house. Tried their knife cut noodles beef soup.

This is their famous knife cut beef noodle soup. I have to admit it was really good! Except it was too oily and a little too salty. But very savory broth! I was most interested in their knife style noodle and it was darn good! I love the chewy texture of freshly made noodles!

Another recommendation was the Oxtail Soup. Since Ginger and I didn't have a huge appetite we ordered one entrée and soup. The soup was sweet and sour.... tomato base. I didn't quite catch the oxtail flavor, since the sweet and sour overtook the soup. So Meh.. don't like this one.

Some other random days, I went out with my Mommy to do some errands... I saw this fast food dim sum place and ordered a bunch of random delicacy that I most enjoy. The place was so cheap I thought I was stealing it! Located in San Gabriel Superstore. This place is truly a superstore has everything you need market,food court, mini boutiques, cosmetic store [Artland: beware those employees follow you because they think your stealing!] It's almost like Walmart except for Asians.

Something else caught my eye while walking through the market. I cannot tell you how happy I was finding this yogurt in the sight of LA. Because it is famous in Beijing!! If you look back on my previous post, picture #56 I also rave about how delicious this yogurt was. I got the to-go version of the yogurt and I think in U.S they only make it in to-go version. In my opinion, it is best kept in glass jar, I feel it loses the texture and flavor of the yogurt drink. Yet, I am happy I get to try it again and maybe more if I could find it in glass jar form.

A few weeks back remember it was freaking HOT HOT HOT 90 degrees everyday! Well to cool off I bought these Lychee Jelly things and FREEZE THEM! This stuff is so awesome frozen because it's almost like eating lychee ice cream. Healthy and delicious! My family loves these so much that it was gone within 3 days... I gotta buy more when it gets hot again.

I made first soy sauce chicken wing thing awhile back because I was craving to eat this! I can't really tell you what the recipe is because its a secret! LOL no really, I just don't remember what I put in. This dish was introduced by my friend from Hong Kong, Melanie. While she was visiting LA, we had a night that we were all cooking. Yep Mel, Ginger, and myself. We were really tired of eating American food ALL DAY and for a change we cooked something at home. Had so much fun cooking, sharing ideas and jokes that it was well worth the effort. So I learned this recipe from her. Will blog about her trip here soon...

Where theres meat, there is vegetables...

delicious...

Just recently Ginger and I went out again... more booze...

HIYE!!

I look so tired and hungry...

We went to this place called MACHI, it was recommend by one of his friend. It's a Taiwanese joint and bar.

Melon with preserve duck eggs, we didn't expect it to look like this. Not so tasty.

This was called Three cup, chicken, squid, and intestine. Seriously that is what is called, you can improvise all you want but this was so savory. It really compliments the beer with the sweet, salty, spicy flavors. Next time I go, I would prefer to order the squid and intestine together. Chicken didn't really fit in this recipe. I would definitely come here again since its close to my house and they have specials everyday. I think that day was buy one get one free beer Thursdays. Food is kind of pricey but they have a great environment and vibe.

We also ordered stinky tofu. In my opinion, it was not stinky enough so no good. I haven't had a real good stinky tofu in U.S. So check out this place MACHI

I went out with my mom and her friend to eat called Hop Li Seafood Resaturant I think it has been taken over by another name since I saw grand opening sign. We originally wanted to eat dim sum, but around 2pm they stop serving so we ordered lunch specials. This is stir fry long bean, yummy. I think their ingredients are fresh and they didn't use too much oil.

Their house special shrimp thing, not worth mentioning since it doesn't taste good. I guess this was for those American taste buds. It just looks appealing, don't let that fool you.

I was really craving to eat "Cherng Fun" white rice noodles. Very simple dish stir fry with soy and bean sprouts. I like... but so full! My kind of comfort greasy food.

I love love love seafood. Especially when chinese do the stir fry clams with bell peppers and onions topple over with black bean sauce. I enjoy this dish the most because the flavor is good and the clams were HUGE. Well okay their not huge but the clams were alot bigger than I normally see them at restaurants.

The other day I went to Downtown LA for an event. I stop by Woori Market for food. They have a couple food court and sushi there and I simply love this place. Cheap and delicious. I been wanting to try this Spicy Seafood there for a long time and while I was down there I tried it! So good! It was sweet and tangy, full of Korean spicy pepper sauce. This was a huge portion for me, since I was super hungry, I ate most of it.

Well that concludes my food blog. I hope I didn't get you guys all hungry or disgusted, either way.
