At some point, pictures will be added to all of these posts...
I totally pimped out my burger... Grilled Onions, Gruyere, Mixed Greens, Tomatoes, Pickles & Fried Egg w/ Garlic Aoili and a side of Sweet Potato Fries!
The meat was a little on the dry side, and the burger was impossible to eat without a knife/fork duo, but overall a solid burger.
So as luck would have it, this drink no longer exists at Copa d'Oro. Instead, whilest on the Santa Monica Pub crawl, we chose to make this a destination spot & had something equally as tasty at this mixologist paradise.
Problem is, I was way too drunk to remember what it was, I only know that my taste buds enjoyed.
Delicious is the only word I can use to describe.
Over 10 cloves of garlic in this yummy yummy dish, it was so huge I barely even made a dent! iz also got the Jya Jya, which was equally as delish & totally reminded me of my favorite Korean movie, Castaway on the moon :-)
because let's be honest: we're in a tight spot right now (Stolen from P/D/A) Also because I didn't feel like re-writing it, after she did such a good job.

84. goodyear blimp (i'm still keeping my eyes open for an invite to this, bthedubs) will be replaced by a scavenger hunt around los angeles
Continuing to knock things off our list, we headed over to Hungry Cat (which btw, perhaps the cutest name EVER) to try out their Greyhound Proper. It was delic, although sadly not a bar, Punky must return for her burger quest at some later point.
Candied Grapefruit. Awesome.
A common location for elementary school parties, I once raced a guy backwards around the rink & totally won.
I also remember playing red light, green light, which in actuality is kind of funny on roller skates. (And yes this was ALL pre rollerblades)
After watching the Lake Show make a stunning comeback with a Kobe 3pt special, we headed down to Wurstkuche to knock another one off the list.
Still unclear as to how to actually pronounce the name of the restaurant, we drove up and down the street knowing we were right at the google maps pin, but still lost as to the actual location. It took a phone call to find out we were right around the corner.
I must say, the sausage collection was rather impressive, but as we had a list to maintain, I stuck to the exotic. Iono, it was interesting, but my mouth feels a little weird. Thinking perhaps they didn't get ALL the venom out of the snake before mushing it up into sausage filling.
The fries were almost Pomme Frites worthy, and the hef german I was drinking was way yum, but also huge. All in all, I'd give it a B+, would probably stick to something a little more tame on my next visit.
