    Check out my friend's restaurant for some great Hawaiin food. Whether you live in LA now, or plan on visiting, make sure to check out Shakas. I recommend the Loco Moco plate.

    I use to live on Garfield too and I've never noticed the place, lol....but i can tell by the high number it's down near the montebello golf course (next to the 60)...

    I'll defintely give the place a check out sometime, thanx for the tip [​IMG]


    btw, I heard the Fatburger chain is completely gone now...have u guys heard this? I hope this isn't true, they made the best hamburgers on the planet...

    ^ I don't think the Fat Burger chain is gone, because they just made a new one right next to my work. It hasn't been open any longer than 3 months, and it doesn't look like it'll be closing down any time soon..

    I hope you're right...the FatBurger I use to go to in Monterey PArk shut down and is now a Hawaiian BBQ joint...

    A friend of mine told me that Magic Johnson bought the franchise and shut it down, but I wasn't sure how credible that is...I also heard rumors that they were opening one on Main Street in Alhambra, but it never opened....

    At any rate, i just have to settle for In n Out and Fudruckers until I can locate a Fatburger near my area...

    I'm pretty sure Fat Burger is still around, and Magic Johnson owns the franchise for it.
    http://www.fatburger.com/

    LA has a lot great burger places though. The Hat, In & Out, Fudruckers, Tommy Burgers, and Pinks...you gotta love it.

    And of course the after party hot dogs wrapped in bacon. Those are the shit after a ngiht of drinking and clubbing.

    Thanx for the link shape..apparently there's a Fatburger in West Covina so i'm probably gonna check it out next week [​IMG]

    The Hat doesn't make great burgers, but they make the best damn chilli cheese fries on the planet...their sandwiches are pretty good too (altho too much pastrami makes me sick)...

    If you guys are into sandwiches, check out Lee's Sandwiches (banh mi)...they're primarily located in Orange County (around Westminster) but the chain is growing into other areas...good stuff at great prices

    I was just out in Bolsa last weekend, eating at Brodards. I agree Lee Sandwiches are very good.

    There's another good sandwich shop in the IE called Sams. This guy is the beer guru, he has rated thousands of beer and has at least 500 different types in the shop.

    Next to the Edwards? I go to the Best Buys and Applebees down there occasionally and i haven't seen fatburger, maybe i'm not looking hard enough...

    I moved around so I went to a couple of HighSchools...but I started at Keppel ..

    I still go to Montebello a lot, usually for the Mall, Cosco, Sears, and (occasionally) the DMV.
