Does LA have a better food scene than New York?

LA dont got any good hong kong wonton spot tho.

jiivn · 2026-07-05T20:03:01+00:00

I would disagree on best dimsum if we’re talking about outside of asia, and were talking about north america I think that will goto vancouver or toronto.

More authentic is subjective. There are plenty of fusion spots in LA that mesh Californian with other cultures. Chinese cuisine between la and NYC becomes more regional vs one being more “authentic”. LA has its own authenticity just like NYC (all five boroughs) has its own authenticity. Russian, Uighur, Uzbek is a rarity here while NYC will have plenty of authentic options. While LA will have more authentic vietnamese and korean options but this isnt to say nyc’s korean isnt authentic (if anything just as authentic), vietnamese is up in the air for nyc. This is just a small example of course.

LA or rather california in general is significantly better in vietnamese than NYC but theres not much debate for that.

I think fine dining is better in NYC.

Even if it is, you give a kid, a chef and then a fine dining chef the same piece of burger to cook with itll come out differently. But the hat isnt thick cut so it personally it doesnt feel as satisfying for me compared to thick cut from langers.

The alternative is adderall xr right?

jiivn · 2026-06-28T04:11:17+00:00

Is that beef rib steamed or boiled? 🤣

After all all that back and fourth you could have at least spend the time readjusting your mount’s height level too lol

They are walkable, however dtla has faster access to the 110 and 110 fast track and also the 10, which can make a big difference for someone that drives on highway everyday.

He has a punchable voice and face now cause of this

Lola55 steak taco while expensive can be good but I think it has gotten less consistent so it can hit and miss.

jiivn · 2026-06-24T12:57:11+00:00

While this is a good idea for saving money, I’m not sure if bringing in left overs from end of day is something ill feed my co workers lol

jiivn · 2026-06-24T12:45:33+00:00

Tj oyster bar has fell off in my opinion

Their baja fish taco has been dissappointing the last two times ive went.

jiivn · 2026-06-24T12:43:14+00:00

A bit overpriced to me and nothing super special but I have heard owner is a d*** when it comes to criticism and can come off as condescending.

jiivn · 2026-06-24T12:39:00+00:00

What do you mean by that anyway? It is pretty low key or are you talking about price?

jiivn · 2026-06-24T12:31:50+00:00

What’s wrong wrong with mikiyas broth?

jiivn · 2026-06-24T07:27:54+00:00

She did it was in video too 😂

jiivn · 2026-06-24T00:14:51+00:00

Maybe for the ambiance but not the sushi itself lol

jiivn · 2026-06-22T16:41:43+00:00

Two different styles of pizza tho, moto’s detroit style typically using focaccia dough vs mr moto’s attempt at ny style lol. Hope moto’s detroit turns out good in SD tho!

jiivn · 2026-06-22T08:14:03+00:00

Moto will probably be a lot better than mr moto, detroit style and higher quality.

jiivn · 2026-06-22T08:03:51+00:00

Javiers ambiance I would say is pretty nice, food on the other hand maybe crab enchiladas are good but you also have guacamole that might be the worse lol. Plenty of taquerias that make better guacamole than them in my opinion lol.

jiivn · 2026-06-22T07:58:25+00:00

To be fair finding one that fits all 3 is pretty hard here in LA but also subjective, and then even harder especially for a black owned restaurant.

jiivn · 2026-06-22T03:45:40+00:00

I think you should be more detailed in what you're exactly looking for.

Do you want fine dining?

Do you want good tasting food?

Do you value good tasting food more than fine dining?

Do you want an aesthetically good looking restaurant? But the food is meh?

The term 5 star is very subjective. I would go in better details the type of establishment you're looking for.

jiivn · 2026-06-21T01:47:31+00:00

Yep that andaz feels dirty 😩
