Restaurants - Delivery or Pick Up Options

https://www.montillameals.com/bianco-pizza

Bianco Pizza delivery for one night only on the 25th, with orders closing on the 22nd. It looks like you need to buy in with a package (for 2 people) and then can add on extra pies from there—but no a la carte option for pizza.

It’s already sold out tried to order it :frowning:

Has anyone tried RunningMan yet? I did last night. I found out about them from this article.

It was game changing! They picked up from Sun Nong Dan and brought to my house on the westside! I can’t quite figure out what restaurants they work with and which they don’t, since I could not find anywhere on their FaceBook that they deliver Sun Nong Dan, but I called RunningMan and the woman who answered said they would and it would be 25$. Not cheap, but Postmates fees are so high, it might be comparable. Plus, no delivery service will go from K-Town to westla.

I did call Sun Nong Dan to make sure they would allow RunningMan to pickup my order, but the guy on the phone knew how it worked, and told me they use the last four digits of my phone number, not my name, to pickup my order. He also did not want me to place the pickup order on Postmates, and so I ordered directly on phone.

Only bummer was no tripe and intestine dish. :unamused:

Delivery was prompt. They call as they approach your house. The delivery guy left a pamphlet from, I think, RunningMan, that had a bunch of restaurant menus, some entirely in Korean, but Sun Nong Dan was not listed.

I am a very happy camper! Heating up my leftovers now!

Does anyone have a good bone-in fried chicken place in K-Town? Maybe I can get them delivered…

So the process is you call the restaurant, tell them you want delivery through Runningman, then order, and that’s that?

You have to call both. You put the order in with the restaurant, and let them know RunningMan will pick up, and then call RunningMan with time order will be ready. You might want to call RunningMan first, to make sure they have available drivers?

Sounds interesting, but I don’t live that far from Ben Ngu or Ngu Binh. Maybe on a random weekend. Thanks…I’ll bookmark it.

ICYMI David Chang did a top 5 of his LA takeout spots on his podcast this week:

  2. Ho Kee Cafe
  3. Summer Rolls / Golden Deli
  4. Spoon by H
  5. King Taco

Of all the taco joints, he picked King Taco? :exploding_head: :exploding_head: :exploding_head:

What is this the taco landscape circa 2004, where el taurino and king taco are the best?

Great pick. With regards to takeout, the egg rolls at Golden Deli are sublime. I didn’t listen to this week’s podcast, but they definitely hit David Chang’s criteria of GBD (Golden Brown Delicious).

Still has the best cheap al pastor sopes. That salsa roja is so nostalgic/tasty.

on his podcast he says he moved to Pasadena. Since he is trying to make TV shows and stuff.

i also like their salsa verde, King Taco isn’t as bad as everyone says it is. There’s a lot of place that are leagues better, but for convenience and consistency, it’s good enough. Granted i haven’t been in a while.
