Wingstop 14307 Bellflower Blvd. Bellflower, CA 90706 (562) 920-2707 Wingstop was founded in 1994 with rich entrepreneurial roots. The chicken wing, not traditionally a desired part of the chicken, quickly became a craved favorite. After successfully creating a niche in chicken dining, Wingstop began franchising in 1997. Wingstop continues that success, with over 600 locations currently operating or in development. Reaching No. 1 in the chicken-wing category for Entrepreneur Magazine and reaching No. 5 in the top 25 New Franchises. Made to order food combined with that entrepreneurial ingenuity makes Wingstop’s future growth just as exciting. King Taco 12102 Long Beach Blvd Lynwood, CA 90262 Phone: (310) 884-9984 Founded in 1974, King Taco began its operation from a converted ice cream truck. The Mexican fast food favorite has since expanded to 20 popular locations throughout Los Angeles County. We service a wide variety of authentic Mexican foods, King Taco has been recognized by prominent food critics and has also placed within the top 100 of Hispanic Business Magazine’s “Top 500 Hispanic Businesses.” Mexican food lovers attribute King Taco’s success to its use of fresh ingredients and consistent quality. Gardens Restaurant:Bar and Grill 8776 Passons Blvd. Downey CA 90240 Telephone (562) 949-1112 Pink’s Hot Dogs 709 N. La Brea Ave At Melrose Ave, Hollywood (323) 931-4223 Pink's isn't your usual guidebook recommendation, but then again, this crusty corner stand isn't your typical hot dog shack. Name another hot dog stand that has its own valet who deftly parks the stream of Rolls-Royces and Mercedes that pull up regularly. This L.A. icon grew around the late Paul and Betty Pink, who opened for business in 1939 selling 10¢ wieners from a used hot dog cart. Now 2,000 of them are served every day on Pink's soft steamed rolls. There are 24 varieties of dogs available, many of them coined by the celebrities who order them. The heartburn-inducing chili dogs (made from Betty's chili formula that's still a secret) are craved by even the most upstanding, health-conscious Angelenos. Even though the dogs are churned out every 30 seconds, expect to wait in line even at midnight -- you'll invariably meet a true crossroads of Los Angeles cultures.

(213) 427-0601 The Guelaguetza (from the zapotec guendalizaa) between the villages in Oaxaca, means primarily “mutual help” or “shared offering.” As a natural consequence, this word today represents the maximum celebration of generosity, a multi-colored demonstration of friendship reflected in the music, the dances, and the gifts that characterize the celebrations of “Lunes del Cerro” (Monday of the Hill) each year in the month of July. Crepes and Grapes Cafe 6560 Greenleaf Ave. Uptown Whittier, CA 90601 562-696-3255 The much anticipated opening of one of Uptown Whittier's newest businesses, Crepes and Grapes Cafe, collected quite a line of customers on March 15. The wait was worth it. The chefs outdid themselves with the delicious crepes, the signature dish. When ordering crepes, you can select your own ingredients and be prepared, the crepes are large (including the popular nutella). Want to try something different? The cafe serves great paninis and salads. Unique is the "tangy tango" panini on fresh Frence bread (the tuna is made with a hint of mango). The menu also includes a variety of beverages, both hot and cold. If you haven't visited Crepes and Grapes Cafe yet, owners Sandra and Frank Hahn invite you to stop by for a tasty lunch or an early dinner. |
