L.A. Kitchen

They’re not particularly good, but it’s cheap if you’re into something quick and happen to be by the Metro in MacArthur Park. It’s more of a self-​serve fast-​food Chinese and you pay by the pound, so it’s typically $ 3.79 and $ 5.99 if you get all seafood. I’d rather go to Panda Express and pay the extra. They also have froyo at like $ 0.39 per ounce. They also sell milk tea for $ 1.99 and smoothies for $ 2.5.

The food is really good my favorite food is the chicken with BBQ their boba is good too I recommend the Thai tea boba

Restaurants come and go at this location. A few months back, they had a pizza place here. Now its an Asian restaurant. All good.
My favorite Chinese place for Beef Broccoli is closed on Tuesdays and I really wanted Korean food but no one delivers. Sigh. The only thing I can get from Langer’s that I like is their Lox. Well. Time to try this new place.
Walking in, I see their counter full of food. Okay. I looked up and saw they have different options for ordering. I can go with their Panda Express-​ish option of half-​and-​half (rice and chao mein) with my choice of entrees or I can choose myself and get charged by the food weight. Same concept when you buy froyo.
Uhm. I have a strong stomach #thirdworldcountryyo! so I went ahead and ordered although the place had me hesitating. Why? Well, let me count the ways.
1. The glass covering was too high for sufficient protection from any contaminants coming from the customers if and when they talk while ladling food onto their plates.
2. The counter had food splatters which just made everything look so messy and dirty.
3. I saw a fly buzzing around because they have their door open all throughout the day.
4. The cashiers handle money and also bag the food for you. They pick up the utensils with their bare hands after handling the money. I didn’t use the fork they gave me.
The Beef broccoli I got tasted okay; I would have made myself happier if I got rice with it but sometimes I try to cut down on carbs.
If they have better quality/​sanitary control that I can see, I’ll go back. With how things are right now? I think I’ll pass although my stomach didn’t suffer any consequence after the meal.
