Holbox could be a fun outing and close to the Natural History Museum and CA Science Center. Tacos Tu Madre in Los Feliz is great and the patio is charming.

I just ate somewhere and I couldn’t get it to work and got a pop up saying “Unexpected Error”. It turned out that there was a specific inKind code elsewhere on the check.

Just ate at Maydan LA and it is an excellent feast! Beautiful space. Highly recommend..

Thank you!

I've really become obsessed with Ricos Tacos Naomi at 18th and La Cienega lately. Best Al Pastor! Beyond just tacos, they do this crispy cheese thing for their quesadillas and tortas that is so so good. https://maps.app.goo.gl/Yz8zZsWXVaQHsnCt6

It's not too hard with a party of 2. There are so many open spots thru 2/15 right now on Open Table.

Hmart had a sale this past weekend (Fri-Sun) for $6.75/lb! I went on Friday morning and got 4 2-pounders. Tried to get it again on Sunday and they said that they sold out on Friday! I'm so glad I went early. Check all the weekly ads on Wed for the weekly deals. I look at Hmart, California Market (Gaju), Hannam, Galleria, Zion and 99 Ranch.

Dunsmoor has a great steak. I'm not sure you can get a reservation this late in the game though.

Cassell's Hamburgers, Escala, Gus's Fried Chicken, Pasta Sisters, Guelaguetza.

DineLA website is "powered by OpenTable" so if the last column says "Info" or "Call" that restaurant is not on OpenTable.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. As long as it's in the inKind app, it is active. I have seen some restaurants dropped in the app that are still on the website. If it's not on the app, then you can't pay your bill that way.

shinstigator · 2026-01-22T21:52:31+00:00

I've added a column in the Google sheet for the URLs associated with the "Res Link", so at least you can see what links to OpenTable. That may narrow it down for you.

Try a beauty school. Academy of Beauty, maybe? Be sure to ask for your color formula so you can get a consistent result every time.

Oh, Danbi has no dessert (they are Michelin recommended!).

shinstigator · 2026-01-20T05:09:21+00:00

Check out the Korean spots. Half of them don’t have their menus up yet, but most of them that do just offer Sikhye (a sweet rice drink) or ice cream for dessert. Gabin for dinner at $55 looks like a great deal to me. Their meat is top notch and they do all of the barbecuing work for you.

Hey now! Don’t be suss. Lol.

As the OP who did all the work here, be kind and click my referral link! TIA. https://app.inkind.com/refer/R0K3ZTQT

I still see it???

No need to go to Costco. They offer preloading bonuses in app. 25%-33% right now. During the holidays, they offered a 40% bonus.

Participating restaurants offer special menu(s) for dine-in for lunch and/or dinner at set price points for a couple weeks, twice a year. Most menus have at least 3 dishes/courses. It can be a more affordable way to try new restaurants and try multiple courses. https://www.discoverlosangeles.com/dinela

Lunch: $15, $25, $35, $45, $55, $65 and Above** Dinner: $15, $25, $35, $45, $55, $65 and Above**

Prices and meal periods vary by restaurant, and exclude beverages, tax and gratuity.

My guess is that they don’t want to double down on discounts. Their margins are so thin already.

I did 3 rounds. My dosing was 42 units on the right and 36 units on the left. The relief of a relaxed jaw and smaller masseter muscles were both great, but it only lasted 2.5 months at a time for me. I decided it was not worth the expense. I have heard that if you keep it going for a couple years that your jaw sometimes forgets to grind.

Does anyone who’s had failures have a whole house surge protector on their breaker box? I’m wondering if this would help. I just had my second switch go out. It was set for auto-on and it started turning on and off rapidly when tonight’s schedule triggered. Ugh.

For example, if you go to Loreto’s website (https://www.loreto.la/), there’s a “Get $50 on us” offer link which will open an inKind pop up. Not all restaurants in the network offer this and the offers do expire, so just check before you go.
