Malo (Silver lake)

By in 05: Silver Lake + Echo Park

Had some drinks and food after work with a couple of co-workers. We went to Malo, a hip hang out place offers “creative” Mexican food. They used to have this Chocolate salsa sauce that tasted good and different, but seems like I’m among the few people who like it as it’s off from the menu. […]

Gingergrass (Silver Lake)

By in 05: Silver Lake + Echo Park

Fred 62 (Los Feliz)

By in 04: Los Feliz

Lunch at Fred 62 today. It’s a hipster version of the All-American 50s Diner (like ‘Eatwell’ in Silverlake from previous entry). Other than the usual overpriced burger, breakfast, macaroni etc with wacky names, the hipster twist are: tofu/vegetarian and Asian stuffs (udon, thai). The sofa seat is pretty cool! The exterior is quite cool too, […]
