LA Blog Food Meme

Here's a little survey that I grabbed while checking out blogging.la. Since they contributed to the LA blogs survey, I thought it might be worthwhile to fill it out. Fun!

1. Where is the last place you ate out?
Last place I ate out was at The Kettle in downtown Manhattan Beach.

2. How often do you eat out?
At least once a week, maybe more since most of our friends, like us, love food.

3. Where is the place you eat most?
The place I've been to most consistently over the past couple of months has been Houston's. Due to it's proximity to work and quality of food, it's a great location for lunch, but maybe only every other week since I can't afford to eat there all the time.

4. Where do you tell your friends that they "have to try"?
Um, last place I suggested to someone had to be El Conquistador in Silver Lake. Excellent Mexican food, and a great place for Sunday brunch. Well great as in you probably won't have to eat for the rest of the day.

5. What dish do they have to order when they get there?
Either their huevos rancheros or the chilaquiles. Served with the best tortillas and absolutely delicious chorizo, they both hit the spot!

6. Where do you eat when money is not a concern?
A variety of places I imagine, for special occasions though, Ruth's Chris is very tasty but the locations are pretty far from where I live.

7. Where do you eat when money is tight?
The last place we went to on a budget for great food was In-N-Out. Can't go wrong with a classic Double Double.

8. What restaurant have you wanted to try but haven't been to yet?
There's actually a list of places, but the two that stick out the most in my mind right now are El Coyote in Santa Monica and Patina at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Both are supposed to be pretty good. There's a ton of smaller local places destined to be tried out soon too, here's to eating!

Some of the Houstons branches seem to have a "vermin" problem that they just can't seem to handle. to the extent of being closed down...
