Let’s talk about French fries. I am and always will be a skinny fry girl. But these fries from rossoblula are on the thicker side, and I’m obsessed. More on what makes these my favorite fries in the universe in Monday’s column.
More great fries happieshandmade .
And the tenders and waffles from Happies.
And more fries… the fries chateaumarmont have been a favorite for years.
The kismetrotisserie x kateberlant Kate’s Crazy Cobb. It’s the latest in the restaurant’s Sandwich Series and it’s available all month. Bacon, cherry tomatoes, feta, avocado, gem and iceberg lettuce, herbs, scallions, jammy egg and mustard vinaigrette. Proceeds go to chirla_org.
I love the stuffed cabbage at brentsdeli . Like a log of really good meatloaf wrapped in tender cabbage drowning in a sweet and sour tomato sauce. IYKYK.
And the 555 sandwich at Brent’s is still great. I order an extra side of Thousand island for dipping.
I made this grinder salad with creamy Italian dressing for dinner with mylastbite (she took this photo. My 12 mini phone could never 🫣) .
We decided to go all in with a steakhouse theme and grill a ribeye, chimichurri (I’ve been using emeril ‘s recipe for years and I could drink this stuff) and baked creamed spinach gratin 📸 mylastbite .
This mocktail came out pretty great. Sparkling ginger lemon water with muddled blueberry, cucumber and basil 📸 mylastbite .
Mango in Kyoto from mottoteacafe in #Pasadena with fresh mango puree and lightly sweetened milk, matcha mousse and almond milk add matcha mochi.

Possibly the least photogenic dish I’ve ever posted but it was too good not to share. The grilled celery root baveldtla . Gossamer tiles of celery root grilled until sweet and caramelized around the edges and tender enough to melt in the middle.
And a bonus burger I forgot to post last week from mamasnackshackburger ! Double cheeseburger with pastrami, Mama’s signature hot pepper relish and bbq sauce.

The Pasjoli chicken liver mousse was superb. The cherry aspic! The warm baguette!
The Pasjoli crêpes with caviar. The crispy, caramelized edges. The beurre blanc with pops of caviar. Order this.
Goat cheese stuffed peppers marcopolotrattoriala
The lasagna prosekitchenandbar in Woodland Hills.
And a little #Chicago content to bookmark for your next trip. I was in town for my first beardfoundation journalism awards nomination and I’m still pinching myself. Dinner etc.chicago with funwithkate and simon.a.davies . The smoked catfish dip with fried crackers. Fried crackers are better than regular crackers. And the company was A+++.
And the fluffy (not flakey) biscuits from etc.. Like the biscuits at Popeyes only 1,000 times better.
The ricotta gnocchi from johnsfoodandwine. Magic pillows.
I asked chandrasplate for a classic steakhouse experience… I might have said I need a martini and red meat. She delivered! A wedge salad with extra dressing from gibsonssteakhouse.
A cold martini and the W.R.’s Chicago Cut medium rare with a side of fries. Perfection. If I lived in Chicago, I’d be a regular gibsonssteakhouse.

The chilled summer tofu.
One pot sticky rice and chicken
Radicchio and fennel salad with creamy maple miso dressing.
And one of the best carrot cakes I’ve ever had. Peter’s carrot cake calls for a roasted carrot puree (it’s worth the extra effort), miso and five spice. I think everyone ate two pieces. I can’t wait to cook through the rest of the book.

The whole duck cutbeverlyhills , dry aged for 14 days. This was in a mulberry duck jus. Now there’s a cherry sauce. This may be the worst photo I’ve ever taken of one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. The rendered duck fat makes its way into accompanying bao buns. Superb! Really limited, so call ahead. More in the column.
The breasts are roasted and the legs are used for an excellent, extra decadent take on Shepherd’s pie.
All the spring rolls, and the new crispy fried rolls from nembysummerrolls . It was an excellent choice for a potluck.
Oatmeal cookies made by rabcarian from benbmims ’ phaidonpress cookbook “Crumbs.” Order the book from nowservingla and make those cookies!

I can’t really explain my fascination with the jalapeno popper sandwich from connals_pasadena in #Pasadena. Maybe it’s because it reminds me of the excellent bacon Benedictine sandwich from cafe2001.la , only with chopped jalapeno instead of the cucumber. I’m confused, but I think I’m in love.

And the salted egg yolk crab upstairs tangdynastysgv
This is where you will also find my favorite plate of stir fried cabbage.
Hot pot from #nice2meetu in the corner.
Roast fish with two flavors liu_roastfish.
And luxurious cauldrons of congee at #HuoZhouWangporridge. More on why and how to spend an entire day roaming around the plaza in Monday’s column
Tacos (duck carnitas and mushroom), lamb ribs, elote and ceviche from the new motherstacos that opened in #Ventura. Still thinking about those tacos.
The limited bistronasus x meetfreshusa jujube paste milk slush with mini taro balls available through May 18 with proceeds ➡️ nokidhungry .
And my fit of the week involves all the fringe and my favorite lackofcoloraus hat with an added beaded band for #Stagecoach.
Have a delicious week.

![The best things I ate and made, with highlights in Monday’s column.
Who makes your favorite #breakfastburrito in LA? I’ve been really into the burritos breakfastburritosallday in #Pasadena. Find out why in Monday’s latimesfood column. Here’s the Basic Bae-con with bacon, eggs, cheese and potato pavé with hot sauce, Chipotle aioli and sour cream.
Also the BB sobunehla with eggs, beef bacon, tots, cheddar cheese, honey Chipotle aioli.
The bacon and sausage chimichanga from thejoshelkin x doghausdogs , only available for a limited time. Details in the column.
Also from Dog Haus, the Cajun breakfast burrito. Those caramelized onions!
Salvi breakfast burrito loco from losmolcajetes_mariposa made with eggs, fried yucca, salvi sausage, bacon, chicharron and cheese. Hat tip to lataco for featuring this burrito.
The bacon burrito wakeandlate with eggs, tots, cheese and Chipotle aioli.
Fish with soured vegetables and preserved peppers katorestaurant
The non-alcoholic pairings at Kato are thoughtful, innovative and a delight to sip and gulp. If you don’t drink, not drinking at the moment or drink anything, I’d recommend it. This was the first pairing of the evening: Pomegranate, Beijing yogurt, wu wei zi.
And this strawberry, rhubarb and white chocolate dessert with almond tuile was incredible.
mylastbite suggested making an apple fritter-inspired cake for wolfiesmom ’s birthday. This is one of the most fun cakes I’ve ever created. Cooked some honey crisp apples down with brown sugar, cinnamon and butter then used that as the cake filling with brown butter frosting. I took big hunks of apple fritters from mrgoodsdonuts to decorate the cake. No, it’s not fried chicken 😂🫣
And these 2-ingredient tater tot cheese chips that mylastbite made for the birthday celebration.
Have a great week ahead! Happy eating.

![The best things I ate and sipped, with highlights in Monday’s latimes column:
danieleuditi stirring a gargantuan pot of his pasta e fagioli. It’s a dish he made at his family’s restaurant in Naples and it’s a favorite at his new dinner club leledinnerclub .
The pasta e fagioli is wheeled around to each table. Dinner feels like a casual, intimate, multi-course meal at a friend’s home, and that’s the idea. More about the club, Daniele’s regional Italian cooking and partner wine_time_with_ferdy ‘s stellar wine pairings in the column on Monday.
Daniele’s rib-eye with demi-glace and what he calls Italian garlic chili crisp. I don’t know that I’ve had a better steak at an actual steakhouse in recent memory.
By the time dessert arrived, I swore I couldn’t eat another bite, but bakingwithish ‘s pistachio tart disappeared quickly. Here he is plating dessert with an assist from chefmasonroyal . More on this limoncello-soaked wonder in the column.
The spicy Italian from cornermarketofficial
And the real deal brisket pastrami from Corner Market.
Scallop dumpling from seaharbourseafood #dimsum
Silken tofu at jilli.la from a great meal catching up with stevedolinsky . He’s in town putting on the next pizzacityfest happening April 26 and 27. Details at pizzacityfest.com 🍕

Grapefruit tea from heytea.usa
