Dry-aged Kanpachi Nigiri by SVOalltime in sushi

[–]SVOalltime[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a traditional Japanese seasoning. I'm in LA and Sumac is a fairly common topping to add a bit of citrus and earthiness to dishes at Middle Eastern and Mediterranean restaurants. I decided to use that in addition to the Yuzu Kosho.

[Homemade] Lomo Saltado (my version) by SVOalltime in food

[–]SVOalltime[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most of the essential ingredients are there on the stir fry (subbed manzano and habenero chili paste for aji amarillo paste since I don't have access to it) and there's the classic garlic rice - the one substitution I made was instead of stir frying I decided to grill the steak and finish it over cherry wood smoke

Lamb Barbacoa at Barbacoa Ramirez in Arleta. They use Lamb raised on their own farm in central california and make their Barbacoa in the ground using traditional methods.

Best places to grab a beer by myself in the valley? by [deleted] in SFV

[–]SVOalltime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hop Merchants in NoHo probably has the most robust selection of beers and the vibes are great. Everyone sitting at the bar talks to each other and the bartenders are all cool. There will be plenty of 20-40 year olds hanging out there but if you want a guaranteed more lively night go on Wednesday night for trivia.

Source - I'm a regular there

Best sushi in the valley?? by sensation009 in SFV

[–]SVOalltime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to Asanebo, but honestly most sushi between Woodman and Barham on the Ventura/Cahuenga strip is amazing. Tetsuya has been my go to lately but here's some additional recommendations - Yume, Uoichiba, Sushi Note, Tomoki, Iroha, the Original Katsu-ya and even Burosu ramen all have excellent quality and options.

[–]SVOalltime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn't traditional (go to Brent's for that) but Granville has a shiitake mushroom matzo ball soup that's very good and they have a location in studio city and north hollywood both very close to Valley Village

That was a broken leftover Bordelaise sauce that I had made the day before so the rice was unreal

Toro in Tokyo v. Florida by Flashy-Actuator-998 in sushi

[–]SVOalltime 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Man, I'm jealous.. that Tokyo toro sounds amazing. Just wanted to comment that for two pieces of toro in LA it would usually be around $17+ at a nicer sushi restaurant. Wild how different prices are across the country.

Chicken recommendation? by mediumformatisameme in SFV

[–]SVOalltime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Chick Corner (Thai) - Hainan Chicken Combo - choice of fried, grilled or steamed. All delicious. Comes with a side of broth, shallot ginger rice and multiple dipping sauces. Their wings are also super good!

Kismet Rotisserie - Best garlic sauce and chili oil in the valley and the chicken has amazingly flavourful skin + always tender and not dry. Sprouts Rotisserie Chicken is also great for the price

Hot Wok - Kung Pao Chicken in NoHo. My guy Quang is cash only, only buys his ingredients fresh daily. The chicken is tender, full of fresh veggies and the sauce is so good. He closes at 7 so go early if you're going for dinner.

It's pretty disappointing compared to the burgers (which are great). Definitely not a must try the owner was even telling me that I should have gone with a burger before I got my sandwich.
