1. Bi-Rite Creamery
San Francisco, CA 94110
(415) 626-5600
Category:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
Neighbourhood: Mission
Ohh yes, ohh yes, ohh yes I DIH-id, friends ^_^...
I went on a Mission [District] to find treacherous street parking.
I happily & patiently endured the Disneyland/X2/XS line that zipped a bit more quickly than expected.
I sampled like trying on a bunch…More »
2. The Lime Truck
Forgive me for sounding insanely hype-y -_-, but The Lime Truck is artlessly & rightfully called a "Gourmet Food Truck."
So, LT is neither dirt cheap nor expensive. But waaaay before their very predictable fame in "The Great Food Truck Race," I'm…More »

Sigh, this is why it SUCKS to forget my cell/digicam in my apartment =(.
I voraciously devoured this… Read more »
3. Seabirds Truck
Let's flaah ah Ahh ah AHH aaaay...
Yes, fly to the Seabirds Truck, if you can xP...
Anyway, for the 2 for $4, one hundred percent, unsullied vegan tacos, even a carnivorous creature like me will become satiated w/ these b/c, really, you're paying LESS…More »
4. At Last Cafe
At last! I finally went to At Last Café! -__- Yea yea, that sounded corny, but I had left this quite dusty in my Yelp Bookmarks--until now!
No joke: this popular, bitsy gem can only seat about 20 people, excluding outdoor seating. So it's a super…More »
5. Blue Water Seafood Market & Grill
San Diego, CA 92103
(619) 497-0914
Categories:
Seafood,
American (Traditional)
Neighbourhood: Mission Hills
Ok, I found this out through Guy Fieri, & as a hometown S.D. girl, I wanted to check this place out.
So parking sucks, yet you're in a neighborhood area that was established, what, about 100 years ago!? Anyway, my best friend & I sure came to a long…More »

Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt,
Diners,
American (Traditional)
Neighbourhoods: Piedmont Ave, North Oakland
Post-Xmas I invaded Warrior Town for a novelty yet hefty scoop of Ice Cream....
Planned spontaneously (^_^) in 40-something degrees Fahrenheit, DL, our friend, & I walked a few or so blocks from our dinner towards a boisterous crowd, subsequently…More »
7. Father's Office
Santa Monica, CA 90403
(310) 393-2337
Sorry, underaged kids. Unless you tell your 21+ friend to order your burger takeout, Father's Office completely forbids this group to enter this very small, clean, pub-like, beer-filled, one rectangular-spaced setting. Don't believe me--there's one…More »
8. BLD

American (New),
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhoods: Mid-City West, West Hollywood
This week's review is brought to you by the letter "B": for a big, beautiful Breakfast from easy breezy street parking on Wednesday, from a not-that-big-of surprise from the BF for an early start of my b-day :P.
Right at the corner of Beverly Blvd & N…More »
9. Sprinkles Cupcakes
I'm gving this a 4-star rate because there are some cupcakes that are unique to the taste & texture, which is why Red Velvet is my all-time favorite. But there are also ones that I've had so much better & costs less than $3.25 a cupcake. I agree…More »
10. Extraordinary Desserts
San Diego, CA 92103
(619) 294-2132
Oh dear ^_^, cake for 3rd review in a row. But this time, there are other desserts to back me up on my dessert writing, thanks to 5 of my eagerly sweet-toothed LB buddies visiting my hometown =).
So were these largely portioned & aesthetically…More »
11. Meals by Genet
Los Angeles, CA 90019
(323) 938-9304
Category:
Ethiopian
Neighbourhood: West Los Angeles
Guess who's back for Ethiopian cuisine :P...
The hapless Monday closure didn't stop Daniel L & me from barging into MBG on a Friday night. From the high Yelp ratings and--in case you find this a big deal--one of Jonathan Gold's 99 Must-Eats of 2010…More »
12. Cafe 222
San Diego, CA 92101
(619) 236-9902
Category:
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: East Village
Excited to visit hometown SD, I used Yelp to narrow down what should I choose for my entree before entering Cafe 222...
-PB & Banana Stuffed French Toast? Ok yes, that's Mr. Flay's #1 breakfast entree, but to me, I'm really not into a very sumptuously…More »
13. Slater's 50/50
To be frank and dorky, I did give myself a 50/50 chance of writing or NOT writing about a Travel Channel-noted restaurant that Jayne L & I threw for our Yelp buddies. And ta-daaa, I went to the former side =).
18 of us had our seated tushies under…More »
14. Philippe The Original Restaurant
Los Angeles, CA 90012
(213) 628-3781
Categories:
Sandwiches,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Chinatown
So I'm a total foodie, exploring to dine on different things, but when my BF and I finally arrived on a super dead weeknight (thank goodness!), after reading the restaurant in a few good online sites and watching Man v. Food, it's sad to say that I…More »
15. White Rabbit Truck
Whoa. This was my 1st Los Al DinDinaGoGo where a truck has a long line at 5:30-ish pm, and it's none other than the apparently elusive White Rabbit Truck--well, I definitely didn't expect it to find it in my area, so yip dee doo! Strangely, right…More »

American (New),
Breakfast & Brunch,
Gluten-Free
Neighbourhood: West Hollywood
During my LA errands (& a few days before the SF vacay) Daniel L & I had a late breakfast during a semi-calm weekday in the WeHo. The décor is best described as almost a better looking Sizzler--smooth, evergreen feel & glossy mahogany wood. What's…More »
Recently updated lists from Fia R.
Oh Sí, Me Gusta el OC. (33)This is for both locals & tourists to stop & smell the worthy oranges. =D |
These Walls Have Holes! (25)...But they're more inviting than the rodent versions!That said, here are the following 4 to 5-star HITWs (aka hole in the walls), from earliest to most recent. |
Meatless! (41)I LOVE eating meat, especially beef, but I don't mind going one whole day becoming vegetarian. Here are some eateries that not only offer deliciously meaty delicacies but deliver very tasty veggie & seafood cuisines.Note that I did NOT mention vegan. |
Deliciously Cheap Eats (46)"Cheap" intuitively gives off a bad rep when mentioning about quality of food. Not in these cases. Here are the eateries that are both yummy and good quality, at least, for penny's worth. |
Do I Hear "Free Wi-Fi?" (18)Yup, I created this for the internet junkies out there :P. |
Fia Frolics for Pho--& Bun ^_^ (13)Oh wait, I forgot about my other favorite Asian comfort food(s)! |
The Bread-Meat and/or Veggie-Bread List (17)Sandwiches, Heroes, Tortas, Hoagies, Banh Mi, & anything that isn't a burger. Just don't make mine too squishy, please. Cheese is "optional." |
Prefer Patio/Outdoor Seating? (37)When you feel like you need open, fresh air or you're getting claustrophobic lately =P |
Tea-rrific (15)This is my Plan B of caffeine consumption, but Plan A if I feel like a much tamer jolt. |
Sure, Let's Talk About Service (19)I normally do not go into further details about service, unless they are THAT particularly remarkable, like the following reviews. Order from praiseworthy to holding-my-cool, icky treatment. |
