  • Hi, I'm Tiffy :)
    Today’s video is a little bit different. We are trying out LA’s 10 MOST VIRAL food places. I love trying new places to eat when I travel, so let’s see if these places are worth the hype!
    We started off strong with the famous In-n-Out, a must-try fast-food joint that originated in California. We tried their Double-Double, their 4x4 Burger, Animal Style Fries, and Legendary Shake! locations.in-n-out.com/74
    Next is SUGARFISH. I ordered their THE NOZAWA TRUST ME, which consists of albacore sushi, salmon sushi, Japanese yellowtail sushi, hirame sushi, sea bream sushi, Dungeness crab handroll, toro hand roll, tuna sashimi, and edamame for $40. sugarfishsushi.com/
    I had to visit EREWHON, known as the most expensive grocery store in the world. I had to give the TikTok famous smoothies a try. We got the most famous, Hailey Bieber Smoothie, Malibu Mango, and the Coconut Cloud Smoothie. Let me know if you have ever tried these! www.erewhonmarket.com/
    Out of everything on my list, I was MOST excited about Sun Nong Dan in Koreatown, which specializes in Galbi Jjim - braised beef short ribs and backbone. We ordered Galbi Jim and Sulung Tang, which were both DELICIOUS! sunnongdankfoods.com/
    While we are in K-Town, let’s try Baekjeong for some late-night KOREAN BBQ! We ordered premium pork belly, boneless beef short ribs, and prime rib eye, and it came with a bunch of free side dishes to try, including steamed egg. www.baekjeongktown.com/menu
    Next, we have Marugame Monzo located in little Tokyo. We ordered their most popular udon, the Miso Carbonara Udon, Mentai Squid Butter Udon, and Beef Udon. I am thinking of filming a quick 20-minute copycat recipe in the new year so stay tuned! www.monrestaurantgroup.com/mo...
    AVE 26TH TACO. For only 1.50 per taco, their meat cannot be more juicy, flavourful, and fresh! originalave26.com/
    What is a trip to Hollywood without trying PINK'S Hot Dog? This has been on my must-try list for YEARS! Pink's Hot Dogs has been a Hollywood landmark since 1939! They have so many different combinations but I knew I had to try their CLASSIC chili Cheese Dog. www.pinkshollywood.com/
    One of the most recommended places, Bestia. A multi-regional Italian restaurant in the arts district of downtown Los Angeles.My personal favorite dishes were their Herb Caesar Salad, Roasted Marrow Bone, Squid Ink Spaghetti, and Grilled Branzino! www.bestiala.com/
    Ee had to try HOWLIN’S RAY NASHVILLE CHICKEN, known for their FAMOUS spicy chicken burger. This was the number one recommended place to try on the list. As someone who LOVES fried chicken and spicy food, let’s see if it's worth the hype! www.howlinrays.com/
    Finally, we had to visit my pop-up event for the launch of kaidong! This was my FIRST EVER in person event and I had such a blast! Thank you to everyone who came and supported the launch of kaidong. It was so much fun meeting each and everyone of you! We will be doing more in person events in the future to make sure to sign up for our newsletter below for our next taste test event and when we restock!
    Comment below which one of these places is your favorite, and if you enjoyed this food tour!

    in & out is the best and only burger I’ll ever crave for. the people in lines aren’t going for the hype, they genuinely love it.

    In n out is the best fast food burger but us Californians do hype it up too much. It’s not a miracle, it’s just a burger. The main thing is that you will never have any other fast food burger that is that fresh.

    LA’s street tacos are the best!! Sugarfish is best dining in imho since the warm rice is really the star of the show. It is pricey but that’s LA for you, everything is super pricey now.

    Got your starter pack today and your chilli oil sauce is ON POINT and so good with pan fried sunny side up. You nailed it! Congratulations to starting Kai Dong and love that it’s not a collaboration with a big name company but something you started from the ground up with all your passion, dedication and vision. Also, loving the body positivity journey you shared and the encourage you give.

    Omg yessss Sun Nong Dan is my favorite restaurant in LA! That galbi-jim is probably my most beloved dish of all time. It’s the perfect balance of beef, veggies and rice dumplings. And the flavor is an absolute dream. I miss it everyday lol 🥹 So glad you enjoyed it Tiffy! Also amazing vid as always 💗

    My BEST advice to TIFFY. Keep the recipes simple enough for a normal person, such as myself, to successfully make. What I love most about you, Tiffy, is that you keep it relatable. Other chefs...yes, they can be the BEST in the world, but what would it mean to the average person if they can't even dream of ever making and eating that food? Pointless, right? If I can follow your recipes from A to Z and actually eat the food just like yours...then YOU are the WINNER in my book. Make it easy and make it fun, this is someone else's winning line but she is so RIGHT!
