Big Javis Hot Fried Chicken Pop-UP

Norwalk

I was invited to Big Javi's hot fried chicken, dulce canella, and Joy on a stick POPUP event in Norwalk. Check their Instagram page for next pop-up.

I had Big Javis hot fried chicken sando with level 2 and it was pretty spicy. If you can handle spicy, try level 4. I personally liked Sunrise sando.

Otomisan - East L.A.

East Los Angeles

I've been wanting to go this place and I finally went there earlier this month.
This tiny hole in the wall restaurant has only 3 booths and a counter. We were there right before dinner time so we didn't have to wait at all. 20 minutes later, there were line. While we were here, someone was screaming "someone's car is getting ticket!" so watch out.

There were only one Japanese lady serving in front and the service was little slow. Also I think yelp reviews are overrated. It wasn't good as I expected. But maybe whichever I ordered wasn't good and if I order something else, maybe I'm gonna like it..? Well, if I ever go back, I wanna try tempura or curry.

Sukiyaki bowl $9.95

I ordered beef teriyaki and pork cutlet dinner combination $12.50
comes with rice and miso soup

Unfortunately, pork cutlet was too tough and not juicy. For beef teriyaki, I didn't think I'm getting thinly sliced beef, so that was little disappointed and it was tasteless.

Rating: 3 / 5
Service: 3.5 / 5
Repeat: Yes

Tacos Los Aguacateros

Tacos Los Aguacateros is street vendor, usually somewhere in East Los Angeles area. But when I went to get their tacos, it was at someone's backyard. All homemade, serving authentic Asada, Pollo, Pastor, Mulitas for really cheap. Good late night grab.
