Okaaaay @goodysgranola deserves some love 🫐🍒
I’ve been on a healthy breakfast lately— the blueberry vanilla + chocolate cherry flavors are on repeat. It’s not that super crunchy, teeth-breaking granola… it’s soft, cozy, and honestly perfect mixed into yogurt. 😊
This has become my go-to quick breakfast when I want something that feels a little special but takes zero effort. Sweet but not too sweet, dessert-y taste without being over the top, and somehow still feels wholesome?
10/10 would eat straight out of the bag while standing in the kitchen. No regrets. 💙🍫🥣 #lafoodie #goodysgranola #breakfast #granola Less

Date day/night in the most charming little pocket of the SGV 🥹🍣
If you haven’t wandered through Old Town Monrovia lately… do it. Cute shops, twinkle lights, and then dinner @filletsushi
We started with the Rock Shrimp Tempura (crispy, lemony, spicy mayo perfection), Japanese fried jidori chicken (SO juicy), and the crispy rice spicy bluefin tuna that I could honestly order twice and not regret it.
But listen… you MUST get these rolls:
The Velvet Toro is next level — layers of bluefin, yuzu truffle soy, arugula, pecorino… it’s rich in the best way.
The White Roll is so fresh and bright with yellowtail + halibut and that little crunch on top.
And the Fire Albacore Roll? Smoky, garlicky, a little spicy… total fire 🔥😉
For our main we shared the Koji Miso Salmon and it was perfectly tender with that savory-sweet miso flavor that melts in your mouth.
And because no date night is complete without something sweet… the Nutella Croissant Pudding sealed the deal. Warm, gooey, chocolatey comfort that makes you sit there a little longer and not rush the night.
10/10 romantic but still fun. Save this for your next day date or date night 🤍🍣✨ #lafoodie #filletsushi #sushi #oldtimemonrovia #sgv Less

We dove into the NEW menu @habitburgerandgrill 🍔 we’re in love with the limited-time 🐠 Baja Crispy Fish — beer-battered wild Alaska cod piled high with cilantro lime slaw, pickled red onions, and Baja sauce on the softest toasted brioche. It’s giving beach day in every bite. 🐟💛
On the side the NEW 🌽 🧀 Cheesy Street Corn Tots… golden, crispy little flavor bombs packed with sweet corn, peppers, cilantro, and dunked in housemade ranch. I could’ve ordered three ❤️
We even got to hang with @chefjasontriail — The genius behind all this California-inspired magic. From the Baja Crispy Fish to the Blue Wave Shake, he’s bringing bold, fresh flavors while keeping those open-flame classics we love. We also love the NEW & improved
🔥 The Sirloin Steak Sandwich (garlic herb marinated, aged white cheddar, BBQ sauce on sourdough perfection)
🔥 The new BBQ Bacon Char (smoky, saucy, stacked just right)
🥗 The BBQ Chicken Salad — so hearty it was TWO meals and still fresh
🧅 Crunchy onion rings + those tempura green beans (low-key obsessed)
🍍 And the new Blue Wave Shake — pineapple + coconut = tropical dessert vibes
Only honest note: if you get the Grilled Chicken Sandwich, I’d personally swap the wheat bun for the white bun next time. Just my preference. 😉
Safe to say we ordered half the menu and have zero regrets. Who’s meeting me for round two? 🍔💙 #lafoodie #thehabit #bajafishsandwich #charburger Less

🍔 Hanging @forthewinla @beverlycenter and tell me why the meat said “I need more space” and expanded past the bun like it pays rent here 😂 Has it always been this way or are we trippin’ ???? 🫣
Their small menu keeps it simple but WOW does it deliver — steak burgers grilled to perfection, fry sauce smothered on top (because it’s a commitment not just a drizzle 😉 ), and those loaded fries with caramelized onions?? 🤤 Certified grilled-onion-girly approved.
And listen… even if Brussels sprouts aren’t your love language, these will convert you. Crispy, drenched in balsamic, and somehow the healthy little side you didn’t know your burger date needed.
10/10. Definitely for the Win🏆✨#lafoodie #forthewin Less

Brothers Ari and Pablo Schor preside over the dreamy corner @restaurantbeba in Montreal, fewer than 30 seats inside in winter. You’ll want reservations.

You’ll also want to find time for Ari’s lush foie gras, piped into a dried date and sprinkled with toasted pistachios; folds of brined beef ham, nestled next to a tiny skewer of guidilla peppers, olives and anchovies; and slices of cured mackerel splayed on a crisp sesame bun, spread with horseradish and butter. The last appetizer is a concert of flavors that tastes like an exquisite bagel.

“The menu is based on our experiences,” says Ari, who occupies the small open kitchen. His cooking weaves the brothers’ native Argentina, Jewish ancestry, adopted Canadian city and a pivotal months-long trip to Italy and Spain — hence the pasta and, with the beef ham, the Spanish-branded Gilda. (Beba, in the residential neighborhood of Verdun, is named for the owners’ grandmother Vera, the baby of her family.)

The secret to the Schors’ success? “If you do something niche, not just delicious,” says Ari, “people will take notice.” A packed and happy dining room says as much. Less

Mention the name @restaurantmastard, and everyone who cares about food in Montreal insists you dine at the little gem opened five years ago by chef Simon Mathys.

The chef’s menu, which revolves around prime ingredients from Quebec, is spare. Each of the give courses is described in just a few words. “I like things short and straightforward,” says Mathys, who nevertheless lists the names of everyone who works for him on a separate card. “This is not a one-man show.”

The team effort reveals itself in the details at Mastard, where the men and women who introduce the dishes include the people who made them. A recent dinner launched with a clear ham broth infused with toasted hay, as restorative a taste as any this season and the chef’s idea of a big hug.

No plate was less than memorable, although this fish fan fell especially hard for shaved, steamed beet hiding a pristine scallop on horseradish cream, and roasted walleye sauced with pork broth, miso and cream dappled with parsley oil. “Sauces are my favorite thing to do,” says the chef, who finishes the walleye with spoonfuls of basil, zucchini and eggplant purees.

The only surprise is a pleasant one: The cost — a mere $75 for a night to remember. #montrealfood Less

Watch till the end for my favorite dish 👀 I literally came here straight from the airport — Monday afternoon and still waited 40 minutes…. Worth it. This is now in my “must-visit” list for Miami ☀️😎

Barra Callao @barracallao — a tiny, casual Peruvian fusion spot that quietly delivers upscale-level food without the upscale attitude or prices. And honestly? This is my favorite kind of restaurant. I love places that look low-key but cook with intention. Where the plating is thoughtful, the flavors are bold, and you can feel the passion — not the ego. No white tablecloths, no performance, just really good food done right.

As usual, I paid for my own meal, I’m brutally honest, and I score everything so you know what to get and what to skip. Some dishes absolutely stood out, a couple didn’t. If you like subtle flavors, this is not the place for you.

Tell me: are you team casual-with-amazing-food, or do you love the full fine-dining experience? #miami #miamifood #peruvianfood #foodreview #seafood Less
