El Coraloense C O Leonardo’s Cevice Co.-Super Ceviche

El Coraloense C O Leonardo’s Cevice Co.-Bell Gardens, CA. Wow that is a long name, say that three times fast. I love finding these family owned gems. They have an extensive menu including seafood entrees, tacos, empanadas but they are famous for their ceviche. Their mango shrimp ceviche w/ spicy cream sauce is their most popular. This place definitely delivers on flavor. This family owned hole in the wall restaurant knocks it out of the park. Plus they give you free tostadas and salsa to munch on which are very good. Love peace and tostada grease!

Sushi Murasaki-Omakase

Sushi Murasaki-Omakase-Santa Ana, CA.  Went to get some Omakase sushi from Sushi Murasaki.  Very impressed by the high quality of sushi.  Sushi Murasaki has been in business for 6 years.  They also currently run lunch specials and a Saturday 30% off omakase as well as  have 10% off if you pay cash.  Normally don’t see these types of deals at a such a high end sushi restaurant, but I am definitely not complaining.  They also have some very unique dishes and rolls including a Seabass with Shishito pepper oil, seared black cod sushi, Blue crab roll with Masago infused with Habanero and Grilled Squid with Monkfish Liver sauce.  The best tasting would have to go to Bluefin Tuna, Kanpachi, Seabass with Shishito oil, Toro, Yellowtail belly , Seared black cod and Uni.  Will definitely go back for some more buttery yellowtail belly, toro and seared black cod.  Love, Peace and Shishito grease.

Siam Taste of Asia-Santa Ana, CA

Siam Taste of Asia-Santa Ana, CA. Siam Taste of Asia is a small family owned and run, sit down restaurant in Santa Ana. This isn’t a Thai take out restaurant, it is an actual nice cozy sit down restaurant with a homely decor. The owner is very sweet and will talk to you. They have some great Thai Food some of the best I have had in the states sinMy favorite are the Fried Garlic Tofu and the Fried Chilean Sea Bass w/ Thai Green Curry. The Fried Garlic Tofu might be the best tofu that has ever entered my mouth. But the Spicy Beef Salad, Papaya Salad, Pad See Eew and Pad Thai are also delicious. Love Peace and Fried Garlic Tofu Grease!
