Peanut butter flavors with a fair amount of heat. They are addictive.

A dreamy dish that is tossed at the table and devoured by the guests. There’s heat and a warm, creamy sesame sauce that’s so memorable.

This Thai open air market just opened a week ago. It’s on Cahuenga just north of Hollywood Blvd. It is open on Friday, Saturday & Sunday beginning at 5 pm. My husband and I are so excited! We had one of the best garlic noodles ever and are thrilled to have all these choices close by.

Take-out from our neighborhood

A pretty standard order for my husband & I to share. We’re able to walk a short distance & quiet our hunger pangs on the walk home.

Love bun with any protein. This one had chicken, greens & noodles.

This is a staple in Vietnamese restaurants & although it’s a decent version there are extraordinary versions in other parts of Los Angeles. That being said, I can walk to this place & still enjoy a decent dish. Bun refers to cold Vietnamese vermicelli noodles served with grilled pork, lemongrass beef or chicken, fresh herbs, pickled vegetables, roasted peanuts & fish sauce. The cha gio or egg rolls served at other Vietnamese restaurants are some of my favorites on the planet. The Vietnamese coffee is not photographed, but was quite delicious.
