🇺🇸 Los Angeles 🌴 Shouting Out MUST-TRY LA Foods! 🍽️👅

Who says America is a food desert? They clearly haven’t been to LA! From east to west, north to south – the world’s flavors are right here in Los Angeles. Thanks to my foodie squad here, none of my pants fit anymore 🤰🏽… but it was worth it! 🍴 Curated “White People Food” Picks: 🌮 King Tacos ⭐️ 5/5 You haven’t truly been to California without trying Mexican fast food – and this is my ultimate go-to. Absolute favorite! 🍔 Pie & Burger / The Apple Pan ⭐️ 4/5 The inspiration behind Shake Shack! The founder said it’s all about the bun and patty – and these are the OGs. Honestly more worth it than In-N-Out! 🍳 Pann’s Restaurant ⭐️ 4/5 A massive American roadside breakfast joint. Beyond bottomless coffee, try their fried chicken & waffles or pork chops with French toast! 🥯 Calic Bagel ⭐️ 4.5/5 Garlic, chive, sour cream, corn… on a fresh bagel. One bite might send a cardiologist running, but for the rest of us – it’s pure joy, not just calories! 🍕 De La Nonna – Arts District ⭐️ 3.5/5 Must-try American-style pepperoni pizza. Great evening vibe with a DJ spinning tunes. 🕌 Bavel ⭐️ 4/5 Upscale Lebanese with lots of seafood options – perfect if you want something beyond lamb, beef, or horse. 🥢 Asian Food Rescue Plan (for when cravings hit): 🍲 Hanbat Shul Lung Tang ⭐️ 5/5 My #1 in LA – the best ox bone soup I’ve had in my life. K-Town, you have my heart forever. ❗️❗️ Readers say "Sun Nong Dan" is even more iconic – apparently, it’s the one spot every international student misses after leaving LA! 🍲 Gamja Gol ⭐️ 4/5 If the ox bone soup is too mild, try their spicy pork bone and potato stew. Perfect for spice lovers! 🍜 Golden Delight ⭐️ 4.5/5 Rumor has it American-style pho leads globally thanks to US beef. After trying many, this spot’s broth feels the most comforting. 🍗 Hong Kong BBQ Restaurant ⭐️ 3.5/5 The biggest plate of BBQ rice I’ve ever seen! A nostalgic must for Cantonese folks missing home. 🇵🇭 Lasita Rotisserie & Natural Wine ⭐️ 4/5 Creative Filipino food paired with natural wine – a fresh, upscale twist on traditional flavors. Highly recommend! That’s 10 for now – more to come someday! Did I miss any LA must-eats? Let me know in the comments! 👇🥡 #LoudlyRecommendingLocalEats #GlobalFoodSquad #FoodiesAreTheBestGuides
