LA Cheap Eats Food Tour--Any More Suggestions?

2nd that! And I really like the food.

LA Cheap Eats Food Tour--Any More Suggestions?

the chili tastes like nothing more than a dark roux to me.

Where can I find Miracle Fruit locally?

just tried it this weekend. not sure where the host got them.

really weird. like you are adding a ton of artificial sweetener to everything. you cant taste sour or spicy. kinda ruins the flavor of the food in my opinion.

Kazu Sushi in Studio City

I've been once. Was totally empty except for me and George Clooney. It's pretty expensive for what it is. Not bad, but there are a lot of better places for your money in LA and even in Studio City.

Shibucho

Shige told me he only serves the parm to wine drinkers for the pairing. May explain why you have never been served it.

Foodie Wedding Caterers in LA?

Heirloom LA is catering my wedding in a month. I really like their food and am very happy with them so far. I would highly recommend. You can taste their food at the new food truck and often at Silverlake wine tastings on Sundays. http://www.heirloomla.com/

The Stufffed Sandwich - Beer Nirvana in SGV

and the pro tip... cause you have to order food to get a beer (something to do with their license), get a half PB&J for $1.50

Actually. I kinda like their foor in a guilty pleasure sort of way. They have spaghetti sandwiches!

Lukshon, A-Frame or Red Medicine

i was very disappointed with A-Frame as well as Chego. In my opinion Roi has a very heavy hand on the sauce. Kinda off-putting.

On the other hand, I really liked Lukshon. Can't comment on Red Medicine though.

California Burritos in LA?

Inexpensive Wine

if you get either of the owners they are amazing as are most of the staff. very excited about wine. they are a boutique store and everything they have is there cause they would recommend it. a lot different from wine house, kl, etc... you really cant go wrong.

Inexpensive Wine

im pretty sure silverlake wine also gives you 10% off purchases of 12 bottles or more

Inexpensive Wine

Silverlake wine does a great job recommending with in this price range. And all the prices on their bottles include tax!

Best Chavela drink

I had one a while back at Hungry Cat that was very good. I also particularly like the one served at the Gold Room in Echo Park although I would not recommend going there if you are over 25.

Some of those places you mentioned are very "hip" not to mention great food. I think you are gonna have a hard time matching some of those places here. I would agree with Animal and Gjelina if your looking for something on the higher end. Other places that come to mind are Wurstkuche (I'll put my money on this one) and Bottega Louie.

Name one thing about Gjelina that no other place has???

Where are the worst cocktails in LA?

But I gotta give Tee Gee +1 for its old school charm. I don't think it's a bad place at all to drink away an evening.
