Croque Madame at Bouchon Vegas
 
Found me a new soul food spot. Black Owned. Joint is on Skid Row though :lol

Comfort LA in Downtown LA. Fried Chicken, Greens, Mac, and Cornbread.

All their sides are vegan and I'm impressed. They were good. The greens were fire. Probably the best I've ever had. And that suace on the chicken was A1. Had to buy a bottle to take home

Lo mein from the hood Chinese spot used to be a guilty pleasure of mine. I have not had it in years and decided to get some from this place near me.
Also picked up "kung pap chicken "
"Vegetable lo mein"

This was absolutely disgusting.
First of all I ordered "vegetable lo mein" which I assumed would have variety of vegetables and not 4 pieces of broccoli. There was no taste whatsoever and I'm wondering if the quality of lo mein has decreased vastly since the last time I had the dish. I ate the broccoli and 1 fork twist of the lo mein , the rest was put out for the neighbors dog and I am honestly skeptical if he will eat it.

"Kung pao chicken"

I had to google "kung pao" to make sure it did not translate to hot trash. This somehow was even worse than the "vegetable lo mein." I don't know how it is prepared with the peanuts but it seems like they just took some peanuts out of a can and threw them on there. Also I ordered "kung pap chicken" and as you can see it's more like "kung pap peanuts and vegetables." There was hardly any chicken and I felt like I was robbed of my money. There was zero spice and again zero flavor almost as if they were specifically making it void of any flavor.

This was the worst Chinese "food" I have ever had and will not be returning again.

Keep at it. Its gets real easy once you start to know the nutritional info of the food you eat. I'm down 12lbs so far.
I keep forgetting to take pics. I discovered cauliflower, zucchini, broccoli, & even squash rice as a great replacement for carbs at dinner. Wegmans has it packed in ready to go packaging & you just use some of their basting oil in a pan & cook for like 3 mins. Each of them have been so good. The zucchini pasta is pretty good to. Also have been stir frying some vegetables with some kind of protien like lean beef, chicken, & pork sometimes roping it off with some sesame seads...
