Dinner at Mahan Indian Food


Dinner at Mahan Indian Food. This is the former Noor's, near the southeast corner of Foothill and Myrtle. Got the Chicken Tikka Masala for $15, naan bread ($3.50), rice ($3), and a big beer ($9). I liked it ... a LOT. And it was enough for both my wife and me. It was served family style so what you see in the picture is just my first helping. Very friendly service as well.

Lunch at Chipotle


Lunch at Chipotle, on Huntington in the Huntington Oaks shopping center. Got a Carnitas Bowl for $7.50 plus $2.10 for guacamole and an iced tea for $2.05. I pushed the lettuce aside a bit so you could see the good stuff but it’s still hard to see. Very fresh, tasty and filling.

Dinner at 1776


Dinner at 1776, on the east side of Myrtle just south of Lemon  I’d heard burgers are no longer on the menu. Yup! They are indeed gone. Got the Cuban Sliders for $10 and a beer for $7. My sliders look a bit different, but I guess that’s because they’re Cuban style. Other sliders look like mini- burgers. Anyway, it tasted fine.

Lunch at Peach Cafe

Had lunch at the Peach Cafe, on the north side of Colorado near Ivy. Always nice and cheerful here. Got the Chicken Pesto salad with a slice of multigrain toast for $11 and an iced tea for $2.75. 

I was tempted by the 112 pound PC Burger but then I looked a bit more closely ...





Anyway, the food was fresh and delicious and the atmosphere pleasant.

Dinner at Ramen Naruto


Dinner at Ramen Naruto, a new restaurant about half a block east of Myrtle on the south side of Lemon. They’re still setting up so at the moment it’s cash only. Kinda hip decor. I ordered the Spicy Miso Tori Ramen (chicken) for $11.50 and added an egg for $1.50, plus an iced tea for $2.50. Nice rich broth. Liked it a lot.

Dinner at Noodle Street


Dinner at the new Noodle Street, in the Vons shopping center. Got the Curry Beef Noodle bowl for $9.75 and a watermelon juice for $4.25. Clean, modern atmosphere. Super busy, maybe because of it’s just opened and it was the last day for 30% off. Food was good.

Lunch at LeRoy’s

Lunch at LeRoy’s, on the north side of Huntington a bit west of Mayflower. I’ve been pigging out lately so I got the Ground Beef Patty from the Dieters’ Special section of the menu for $9.25. That and an iced tea for $2.75  I resisted the temptation to get a Deep Fried Twinkie Sundae. Well! “Diet” at LeRoy’s certainly doesn’t mean small portions. I couldn’t finish it all. What I could finish was good, though.

Breakfast at Nano Cafe


Breakfast at Nano Cafe, on the north side of Duarte Road just east of Mayflower. Got the Italian Frittata for $11.99 and a coffee for $2.79. It came with potatoes (I substituted cottage cheese) and toast. It also came with bell peppers and I’m not a fan of bell peppers, but that was my own fault as it clearly said “peppers” on the menu. But it was fresh and good and a normal person who likes bell peppers would have been pleased.
