Papa Cristo's - Los Angeles

Papa Cristo's, Greek restaurant in Koreatown area. We had a BBE coupon and I think it was 30% off. I rarely eat Greek food and I don't know so much about it, but what I know is food at Papa Cristo's is very good.

Issen Joki - Little Tokyo

Issen Joki inside the Little Tokyo mall. Very reasonable and big portion. Average taste of traditional Japanese yoshoku food.
I asked the lady for recommendation, she said sanma (grilled fish) is good. I was gonna order it, but I saw mixed cutlet on the menu and that's what I got.

Kokekokko - Little Tokyo

Recently I went to Kokekokko yakitori house. I always avoid hearts, liver, gizzard, and some other weird parts but I just decided to try it because you don't know if you like it or not until you try it.

I ordered their half course $16.50, which comes with 5 yakitori skewers, oto-shi, soup, and salad. I also ordered quail egg. Because they serve skewers one at a time, we were here for one hour, just to eat 5 skewers.





























menu















First, this oto-shi was served.













Then the waiter brought me salad



























sasami
It's white meat, and please don't freak out when you see the chicken meat that looks like rare and not cooked enough, because that's how they cook these sasami. I liked it a lot.













liver
My first time trying liver, I don't think I like it. But if you like liver, you'll like it.













sunagimo (chicken gizzard)
Also my first time gizzard. I think it had a tough texture.













hatsu (chicken heart)
And again, my first time heart. Actually it was tasty.













momo niku (chicken thigh)













Uzura (quail eggs) $2.50













soup - tastes like chicken stock. greasy.
