So yesterday my friends and I decided to have an adventure in LA. We ended up at this small colorful Mexican place called Carnitas Michoacan to eat tacos.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgk2QFyipgPJ_nKhS2BwQNK4lK0H9_Zbjwqyu0sucfvwX6EebBwVN3-hudIgTzCLdalRYKwyiz6PUBVBqvf_R7a1LNb2JnmUsXcLZSIhQ8shRmshaLPzvLR-M-A_WSKWLVEkk2N6dW16Zo/s320/DSC06913.JPG)
I ordered 1 carne asada taco, 1 chicken taco, and 1 carnita taco. Each taco was pretty cheap, something like $1.35 per taco. too bad the whole menu was in Spanish so I didn't really understand most of what was on the menu haha. The tacos also come with a side of 2 radishes, yea just regular raw radishes. To clean your palate maybe? anyways, the tacos were very flavorful and had a lot of spices in it. They marinated the meat well. It they also had small packets of salsa that made it taste more spicy and yummy. It was a little on the salty side though but overall it was very good.
After wandering LA all day, we went to Hae Jang Chon Korean BBQ Restaurant for dinner.
It's located in ktown and most people pay $2 for valet parking. Even though I've been here a couple times before, I forgot how good this place was. It was a lot better then the place we usually go in Irvine. The service was really great. We got seated in less then 15 minutes on a saturday night around 7 pm. Even though none of us spoke korean, all the waiters and waitresses were super nice to us! and they cleaned our grill FOUR whole times. And they had a large variety of meats to choose from. We tried a lot of meat last night but I think what stood out the most was the brisket and the pork belly. Brisket dipped in sesame oil and salt + lettuce and wrapped in rice paper...amazing. I stuffed my face. Also, when you are done with the meat they give you delicious kim chi fried rice. As it is sizzling on the grill the rice turns crispy and delicious! we finished it all even when we were stuffed with meat already. It cost $22 total per person for all you can eat if you dont order any drinks. My friend ordered a beer with his meal and his total came out to be $28.
brisket yum yum yum
thick pork belly
kim chi fried rice and bean soup at the end!
Well worth it for a GREAT meal!
