Shrimp dumplings $2.50, shumai $2.50, and white rice cake $0.55
Didn't like rice cake at all. It was too sweet.

Preserved egg & pork congee (s) $1.99

The portion was big but we didn't like it at all. It tastes like Chinese medicine.

Croissant Taiyaki at Snowya - Little Tokyo

Croissant Taiyaki at Snowya - Little Tokyo

little tokyo  

I was here when they just opened, back in January and I was so excited because I can finally have croissant taiyaki here in L.A. But this place was a huge disappointment. Taiyaki wasn't fresh made, it was already baked and was sitting in the case. When you buy Taiyaki in Japan, it's usually they make fresh so already hot, fresh and delicious so that's what I expected. Anyway, it was overpriced and the service was not very good either. When I was there, the worker didn't understand English well. * BTW this is Korean owned store, not Japanese. But since it was still first or second week after they opened, I gave them some time and I went back again. The store was open, I hear someone cleaning dishes or something in the back, but absolutely no one was there. I called them few times but no answer so I just left. No wonder this place is always empty.

Green tea taiyaki $4.09
