MY FAVORITE TYPE OF MEN IS RAMEN The cold, rainy, and windy weather has got me craving ramen all the time lately. @kairamenarcadia serves up huge piping hot bowls of ramen that will surely keep you warm. Canโt go wrong with the award-winning Kai White ramen (salt base with skinny noodles, garlic butter, pork belly, egg, scallions, crispy onion, and woodear mushrooms) or the Spicy Miso Tonkatsu ramen (spicy miso base with thick noodles, minced ground pork, scallions, egg, and corn). If youโre not in the mood for soup, the beef curry rice is so good! Be sure to order some appetizers too, like the panko shrimp or crispy tuna rice, while youโre there. #ramen #noodles #soup #japanese #arcadia #sgv #la #losangeles #aapifoodiefam

SO NICE TO MEAT YOU KBBQ-ty This feast at @saemaeul.us made my stomach very very very happy ๐ฅฐ The high quality cuts of meat here are well-marbled and extremely flavorful. I love that the staff here does the grilling for me so I donโt have to worry about overcooking my food. Donโt sleep on the side dishes, especially the super fluffy and cheesy steamed egg ๐คค๐ #korean #koreanbbq #kbbq #buenapark #orangecounty #aapifoodiefam
YOU DOSHIRAK MY WORLD The Combo C Large Doshirak Box from @hanshikexpress is off the hook because itโs packed with so much food! You get to customize the box with your choice of rice, 8 (eight!!!) main items, and 2 sides. They have top notch selections to choose from, such as braised short ribs, oven baked brisket, pork belly, chicken curry, and japchae. If youโre looking for something different, try one of the tacos from the @kang_taco menu. The galbi beef and pork belly kimchi tacos are really juicy and flavorful. If your appetite is really big, the giant lemon pepper prime beef burrito will fill you right up. Both the red and green sauces add a really nice kick of spice to each bite, so donโt skimp on it ๐ฅ #korean #tacos #burritos #fusion #ktown #losangeles #aapifoodiefam
NO FOWL PLAY HERE If hunger strikes when youโre in West LA, be sure to stop by @madbulldog.hotchicken for some crispy crunchy Korean hot chicken. The Nashville style hot chicken is so juicy and flavorful, and it pairs so well with the garlic butter fries. I love the soy garlic popcorn chicken too because they are little bites of flavor explosion in my mouth, and the chicken tenders here are so big ๐ #korean #chicken #sandwich #losangeles #westla #aapifoodiefam
LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL Let me katsu up on how shrimply delicious the food is at @rollcall.miraclemile . Youโll always have a rice time here because everything is soy tasty! The menu offers a very large selection that includes classic rolls, baked rolls, no rice rolls, nigiri, bento boxes, noodles and appetizers. My favorite was the nigiri sushi sampler, which came with tuna, albacore, truffle salmon, yellowtail, and blue crab. ๐คค #sushi #rice #fish #japanese #losangeles #aapifoodiefam
DIM SUM-ONE SAY YUM CHA?? Did you know that you can find good dim sum right by the beach at @lotusdimsumhouse in Santa Monica? The flavors of all the dishes that we ordered were on point and very tasty! There are also a variety of entrees on the menu, like garlic noodles and honey walnut shrimp, if youโre not in the mood for dim sum (but why not???). My personal favorites at any dim sum restaurant are siu mai, har gow, and cheung fun, and the ones here definitely have my stamp of approval. What are your favorite things to eat at dim sum?? ๐คฉ๐ #dimsum #chinese #yumcha #santamonica #losangeles #aapifoodiefam
YOU MAKE ME SOUP-ER HAPPY The rainy cold weather has been making me crave hot soup all the time! Iโm glad that I was able to satisfy my cravings and warm my soul at @fivefivenoodles_arcadia . Fivefive Noodles is a new Chinese-Vietnamese fusion restaurant that offers a variety of noodle and rice dishes on its menu. All the dishes are made with high quality ingredients, and the broth is made daily from scratch. I loved the house special noodle soup, which is like Chiu Chow noodles. The flavorful broth is clean and clear, and the thicker rice noodles are so fun to slurp ๐ Be sure to stop by to support this local mom & pop shop! Angela goes above and beyond to attend to every customer, and she will take very good care of you! #noodles #soup #chinese #vietnamese #arcadia #sgv #losangeles #aapifoodiefam
KEEP CALM AND CURRY ON @bananaleafla was listed by @infatuation_la as one of the best restaurants in Culver City in 2022, and the recognition is well deserved. There are over 15 different flavorful biryanis on its menu, and it also offers unique dishes, like the Chicken 65. Itโs a spicy, deep fried chicken dish thatโs crispy and very well-seasoned. I also enjoyed classics like the chicken tikka masala and the saag paneer, which is a longtime personal favorite of mine. Go check them out the next time youโre craving some good Indian food! They also have locations in Redondo Beach and DTLA. #indian #curry #chicken #culvercity #losangeles #eatwithfoodiez
NICE TO MEAT YOU, KBBQt Craving KBBQ really hard right now and thinking about that time I went absolutely HAM at @hankoreanbbqhouse . Han Korean BBQ House in Burbank is an AYCE KBBQ restaurant that serves up high quality premium meat, including American Wagyu, chuck eye steak, marbled boneless short rib, filet mignon, black angus beef tongue, and so much more! Theyโve also got carpaccio, sashimi, sushi rolls, fried rice, noodles, and yummy appetizers on the menu, so there is something for everyone. Thank you Chef Robert for your hospitality and for making this experience an awesome one! #kbbq #koreanbbq #losangeles #burbank #sfv #aapifoodiefam
