I am always on the hunt for a good sandwich & salad place. So when I found out that Mendocino Farms was opening up a restaurant in the Valley, I was thrilled. I’ve always wanted to try their food, but just hadn’t made it out to their downtown Los Angeles or Fairfax locations. They are all about using farm fresh produce, sourced locally & you’ll be happy to note that their prices are comparable to other sandwich & salad cafes. This … [Read more...]

Happy Friday to you all! If you love food trucks, you’ll want to come out to Food Truck Friday in Granada Hills. So many food trucks line up on Chatsworth Street, between Zelzah Ave. & White Oak Ave. It is a fun family atmosphere - sometimes they even have musical street performers on the corner. I almost always run into someone I know! Usually the big named food trucks (Kogi BBQ & The Grilled Cheese Truck) visit on Fridays. However … [Read more...]

Posted on August 5, 2013 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: 626 Night Market, Arcadia, Astro's Mini Donuts, Cloud Boutique, Father's Kernel, food festival, Ginger Cakettes, Santa Anita Park, Yelp | 7 Comments

This past Saturday I finally got to try out the 626 Night Market at the Santa Anita Park in Arcadia. Being that I live in the San Fernando Valley, this was kind of a trek for me. However, it was well worth the drive! One of my friends had gone in July & I took her advice – showing up at the gates right when it opened.
