Bummer on Menya Musashi…Had a similar experience there recently…and my friend got food poisoning just 2 weeks ago there! (most likely from the old charsiu).
Looks like sticking with Tsujita, Iki, and Daikokuya in LA.
lol I see what you did there!

Costa Grande
Located on Sepulveda and Sherman Way. Had a killer breakfast burrito there last year. Was in the area with wifey so we stopped in for a few Taco Tuesday tacos.
Taco Tuesday has all street tacos (meat) $1.99 and fish tacos $2.99.
One fried fish, one grilled fish:

Salt And Straw
Then I say I need dessert, she says Salt and Straw (Studio City) probably has a light line at 5:30 on a Tuesday. Yep, she was right. No line.

Yeah, yeah, I know this is a weekend rundown thread. Tough crap. It felt like a weekend.

@Chowseeker1999 Belated thanks for your report, I’m glad to hear Kae Sung has righted the ship regarding the kimchi brine recipe.

Weekday, I know, but as Gr8pimpin said above, it felt like a weekend.
Found Oyster pop-up, featuring (former Red Medicine and Providence) Chef Ari Kolender at Konbi!
One dish only at this pop-up (?!): The Konbi Lobster Roll ($20)… Generous lobster with a spicy kick, nicely toasted, juicy roll, topped with chopped jalapeno and chives. Served with house vinegar & sea salt potato chips - Really outstanding! I practically inhaled this thing.

No need to be modest, inhaling is SOP at FTC.

Figured I would continue the threadjacking.
Gwen meatball and tuna sandwich in background. They made lunch full service so you don’t order at the counter and you have to tip now even though service wasn’t great.
Tuna was on point but meatball was a tad dry today 
also they give you salad instead of chips now

With the lemon for scale it looks like 3 bites, at best.
Reminds me of A̶n̶i̶m̶a̶l̶’̶s̶ SOG’s lobster roll.

Have you tried Ricky’s? Just wondering how they compare, since this is closer to me.
I would choose Ricky’s 99 out of 100, the one time would be if I found out Ricky was closed for the day.
These are serviceable. Like 1 million other places in town. They were pretty good. And on Taco Tuesday… yeah.

yeah, Ricky’s after a downhill is still better than most in town.
