I went to Curryfornia a few days ago. I thought it was good, not amazing but its better than most restaurants that use curry blocks from S&B/House/Vermont.
Do note once you start adding a bunch of things it can easily become a $20 plate of curry. I got the omurice and katsu option FYI but the base set does come with 3 free toppings.
The curry hamburg (add cheese) at Midoh in Rowland Heights (I know, not South Bay) is pretty fuckin good. They also have a spicy condiment you can add which is fantastic.
Painters Tape is a regular lunch spot of ours here at the office.
Some of my fav things: pork toro bun (it’s actually a sandwich), cabbage salad, griddle bread, curry donut
Just stumbled upon this new churreria when I was getting some lamb biryani from zam zam. Just opened in 2019
Some of the best churros I’ve had in LA. Different from the Mexico City style that are small lighter and airier. These were larger but still soft on the inside. They make and dress them to order I had one plain and two filled with cajeta.
Pure churro happiness. Do a bang bang if you’re near zam zam
Anybody have good suggestions for dinner pick up in Torrance that will travel well to be eaten 1-1.5 hours later. I’m going to Monkish to pick up cans and want to grab dinner from somewhere out there as well. Sushi is likely out. Any of the lovely fried items like Kagura or Carlos seem tricky.
@Hungrydrunk is right. Any of the Wadatsumi bowls would travel well…and you get their delicious rice. Fukugawa is also a good option. I love their grilled fish. You could also try grabbing a charcuterie tray from La Española. Maybe dessert from Nagomi, Chantilly, or King’s Hawaiian…depending on what’s open.
Looks great. They don’t do the combos to go. This looks up our alley for outdoor dining.
I’ve heard of but never been. They close too early as well but will check them out when I have more time.
Last time I went to Kansha Creamery they were only doing pints to go. If they have scoops I might get one in between Monkish and Otafuku. Dessert before dinner is the best.
I stopped by this past Sunday for lunch and they were not open. The place was still filled with equipment but not operating that day. Really bummed because I was looking forward to the biryani and the place I ended up going getting biryani to did not suffice.
