Harry's is famous for its Chicken Di Giorgio and Rib Eye sandwiches. There are also your regular sandwiches if you don't want to stray from the ordinary but why would you when the specials are so delicious? Don't leave without trying the tomato soup -- it's some of the best around!

where I turn to for comfort

11/07/2011 - 01:54 pm

When I'm needing some comfort food and I'm not able to make it myself, I turn to Yu's Garden to make it happen. For about $7 you can choose 2-3 items off their selection of vegetarian or protein dishes which comes with rice or sweet potato porridge. On the weekends they do Taiwanese breakfast items as well such as soy milk soup.

middle eastern food with heart

If you chance upon the owner when you visit Doner G you will never forget it because he will go out of his way to make you the best meal you've ever had. My favorites are the schwarma and the lentil soup. Don't forget the falafels and babaghanoush too.

the best middle eastern food in OC

11/07/2011 - 01:41 pm

When I go to Kareems there is only a few things I order. The babaghanous is the best I've ever had and the koftas are to-die-for. The falafels are also delicious! It is family-owned and the decor is plain and simple, but the food is anything but that!

pupusas and more

Although their specialty are pupusas, I come here for the chicken soup. A hearty bowl of piping hot chicken soup filled with a myriad of vegetables with a plate of chicken on the side and plain pupusas is the ultimate comfort food any time of the year.

If you want home-made Peruvian food that is healthy then you definitely need to check out Renzo's. Nothing is fried -- everything is steamed or baked and the bustling personality and passion of its Chef/Owner Renzo Machiavello comes through every single time. Try the sandwiches which Renzo roasts the meats himself every single day, or try one of his delicious ceviches.

healthy choices

Vietnam's Pearl is one of those hidden gems which offers great Vietnamese food without having to go to lil Saigon. Love their healthy choices including salads and hot soups with the option to go low carb by foregoing the noodles.
