I’ve become a fan of the store. I know I pooh-poohed it in other posts, but now I have become a fan of the artisan sourdough wheat bread (it toasts quite well) and the super-fast checkouts. I have never stood in line there. I just walk right on up to one of the atm-like check [...]

From J, I learned this: Monday, April 27 – Free grilled chicken at KFC. Grilled, not fried. KFC’s branching out. Tuesday, April 28 – Free chicken at El Pollo Loco till 8 pm. Wednesday, April 29 – .31 cent scoop night at Baskin Robbins from 5 – 10 pm (firefighter fundraiser) Yeha! Recession dining continues…
Hop Li in Arcadia is currently running a $1.38 dim sum promotion (Monday through Friday) celebrating its 4th anniversary. Hop Li is one of my favorite dim sum places because there’s usually no line. I hate waiting in line for dim sum. Sure, you might think the no line is a bad sign but it’s [...] Indian sandwiches or naanwiches! I’ll have to stop by this place next time I’m in the Miracle Mile. I read about this on EatingLA.com. I tried to do a direct link to her post about the Cowboys & Turbans restaurant but I couldn’t figure out how to do it. Cowboys and Turbans serves Indian street [...] I got the Greek salad from Fresh and Easy and it was very disappointing – just some hacked up leaves thrown haphazardly in a container. (Trader Joe’s has much better salad presentation.) The leaves did not remain fresh for longer than a day despite the freshness date on the package. Is this because Fresh and [...] Can a cheap meal be had at Whole Foods? As I get to know its second floor eating area better, I think I can say….Yes. The breakfasts, tacos, and Middle Eastern food all seemed reasonably priced. Then I saw this on WF’s (Arroyo Parkway location) calendar: Saturday March 21st and Sunday 22nd Whole Lotta BBQ! [...] So I’ve now been to Fresh & Easy in Alhambra three times and can say this – I don’t like the shopping experience there. The aisles are smaller than most grocery stores, so it’s hard not to run into someone. I felt cramped and cornered there. Also the ready-made food section looked very uninspired. I [...]
I’ve been meaning to blog about Burrito Kingdom in Alhambra, CA, the place where I go for my carnitas taco fix. I’ve been to this place many, many times, and I am in love with their carnitas taco, which is juicy and spicy (with salsa) and always tasty. I have not tried many other things [...] At Whole Foods on Arroyo Parkway, you can get a 2 taco plate with rice and beans for $5.29 (or thereabouts) at the 2nd floor restaurant. That’s a pretty good deal for Whole Foods. The plate was good too, not exactly savory, but good in a healthy, filling way. I suppose if you slather it [...] I visited the new Fresh & Easy in Alhambra on Sunday. It was hopping! I think Fresh & Easy has hit pay dirt with this location, which is across the way from Target, and in an area that needed a grocery store. The store is large and has more product variety than I thought it [...] |
