The worst taiyaki ever at Bebinca in Koreatown

It was after midnight and we were craving for taiyaki, so we yelped it and found this place. The funny thing is that this boba place sells not only boba drinks, but also sells poke, edamame, macaroni salad and taiyaki.Very unique. Anyway, I'm still pissed off. I just can't believe this place served us such a horrible taiyaki.

I thought this is what we are gonna get
But in real life, this is actually you are gonna get. We got red bean and lemon cream. 2 for $5. 
Ripped off. It looks like under cooked, not crispy at all. I mean, is this eatable? As you can probably tell from the picture, the worst taiyaki I've ever had in my life. I can make better than this.

Bae - Little Tokyo

New cafe in Little Tokyo. Bae offers coffee drinks, yummy donuts, lemonade, and soft serve. Unfortunately when I was here during soft opening,  soft serve wasn't ready yet so I need to go back sometime soon. But I tried their donuts and coffee. Baeberry drink is very unique and it's addicting.

Mike's Mighty Good organic ramen

Mike's Mighty Good is all about Organic ramen noodles made without pesticides or harmful chemicals, Insanely rich broths, Humane animal standards, Non-gmo sourcing, and No palm oil.
Also their ramen is between 190-250 calories, which is less than half of the regular instant ramen. And every time I made Mike's Mighty Good ramen, I got so full and satisfied. And they are made in California!

Each ramen was pretty flavorful, which surprised me.
 Here's what's in the package.
I prepared flavored eggs, chashu, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, and green onions.

Creme - Koreatown

Cremia soft serve has been very popular in Japan, you see everywhere but (I think) this is the first location that serves cremia soft serve in L.A. As you can see, it's super creamy and rich in flavor. It also melts fast so don't spend too much time taking pics like we did.






You pick flavors
Cremia with black sesame and matcha / banana and strawberry flavors
Tiramisu
This is my favorite of all.
Matchagato (matcha affogato)
Churros
Vietnamese cold brew

A special event introducing Australian Wagyu Beef to the LA market

 
So I was at this special event introducing Australian wagyu beef that happened 2 days ago. Everything was cooked by talented chefs, everything was really delicious. Sometimes it's nice to keep eating only steaks until you get really full. Anyway, now you can buy Aussie wagyu in Los Angeles. That's awesome.

The Australian Phoenix Beef range represents a wide variety of beef specifications to suit the discerning beef consumer. From natural, free range, hormone and antibiotic free beef to premium grain fed beef to our superior marbled Wagyu beef they have an Aussie beef brand to suit.
