Steakhouses In Los Angeles County near the beach

how about the bullpen in redondo, steakhouse and semi near a beach or Tony's on the pier

Pepe's NY Pizza or other thin-crust in Studio City area

Good pizza But i prefer ordering in vs. delivery, those couple of minutes in the car make a difference. I'm Not down with just warm pizza. The large pizza is the size of a table and the crust is nice and thin.

Are there any quality Mariachi dinner shows in Puerto Vallarta..anyone anyone??

thank you for the heads up

Your favorite restaurants for healthy food

Far from helathy, tasty, fresh or good. If you consider an asian chicken noodle special kept warm under heat lamps healthy, then yes it's healthy.

Are there any good places for a mariachi dinner show in puerto vallarta?

Something open air would be nice. I'm sure there's plenty of places with nightly entertainment but I'd really like to see a real mariachi dinner show.

Guadalajara Expo Area

thanks for the help, Ma Come No is No more. It's has a new name and was closed when we tried to go.
We did find a very nice place called el sacromonte, very nice, well presented Mexican gourmet in the Chapalita area not too far from the expo area.

Guadalajara Expo Area

Any suggestions of Guadalajara are appreciated. We'll have a car Friday till Sunday.

We will also visit Chapala, Tlaquepaque and tenamaxtlan. Staying at the GDL expo, thanks for the help.

Guadalajara Expo Area

Hola chowhounds

Can any suggest a few local eateries in and around the expo area? I'd like to take my father out for a couple authentic dinners, he hasn't been back home in GDL in over 15 years.

Also, are there any wine bars or note worthy watering holes in the area?

Thanks,
AFS

Looking for a chow worthy Solo dinner mission this Sunday

Hi all-
I'm in town for work and I have free time Sunday for dinner, I'll be alone so I would prefer a restaurant that has a bar area I could enjoy a "nice and no rush" dinner, a nice wine list is always a plus.

Does Bouchon fit this description?

group dinner in Healdsburg, anyone anyone???

Friday night and around 10 to 12

group dinner in Healdsburg, anyone anyone???

Hi All
a group of old high school buddies and wife's are headed north to Santa Rosa and Healdsburg next week for a wedding.
We're going to meet the wedding rehearsal party at a place called john and Zeke's for drinks.
Is there a place nearby for a group dinner for a bunch of 37/38 year olds, not too $$$ but fun enough for an old group of friends and wife's Sans kids???
*******Good food, wine and local beers a plus.

Thanks

ISO Santa Barbara California Pepper Taco Sauce in Los Angeles.

I had the best taco sauce hands down at my disposal when I lived in Santa Barbara.
I haven't been able to find the same taco suace here in LA, from Downtown, to Santa Monica to Studio city.
I can only find Santa Barbara salsa which is nice but not the same thing.

it's in a bottle unlike the salsa which comes in a jar.
Thanks,

Finally! Great ramen comes to the Valley!

Is it located in the Marshall's strip mall? I look forward to trying this place

Moving to the Valley, what's good?- Sherman Oaks/Van Nuys

Oysterhouse on a saturday afternoon, music, cold beer, burger or fish and chips..........always a good time.

Plate lunch near OGG airport???

BA-LE in Kahului is maybe 15 minutes from OGG; vietnamese sandwich's and plate lunch. They have amazing egg rolls too. I was just there last week I had the bbq chicken plate lunch and my wife had one of the sandwiches.
Awesome vietnamese spin on the mac salad too.

great pub fare in Waikki for NFL playoffs this weekend?

I'm in Waikki this weekend for work and would love to find a great bar with awesome yet tasty pub fare or great pupus for the Dallas game sunday any thoughts?
Mahalo!

100% dead on about the limp earth, how is that place still open. I just tried the studio cafe for the 1st time for breakfast, nice surprise, I've been back 3 times.

Give up on Studio City/Ventura?? a few good spots

I just tried Caioti for the 1st and last time, maybe it was a bad night but the pizza was really bland and the sauce was almost bitter, thank god for vitello's.

Monchong and Spearfish in Los Angeles?

How did the monchong turn out?

Christmas night dinner

Tamales

if it's smooth you're looking for you need to find a place that makes the masa with milk

Tamales

You'll have to go a bit further east for the real deal
It's christmas season and if you want the best you should go where the best are made

Christmas night dinner

I always go out to dinner on Christmas night and my wife and I I would like to break my Pasadena tradition for a steakhouse.
Any LA Steak resto's open on Christmas night? It looks like Taylor's, and Musso's are closed according to Opentable.

If not ................any old school staples open that I forgot?
Anyone.......Anyone???

Late night dinning in Union Square area??

Hi all-
LA Chow here looking for a place with ambiance and quality food to take my wife this Friday night.
We should be settled in and ready around 9:45pm and would love to hear some recommendations for a 10pm dinner in walking distance.
We'll be staying at the St. Francis.

Food wise anything goes, Asian, Italian, Steaks but keeping within a $$ budget would be cool too.

Simple sometimes is always the best.
Thanks,
AFS
