La Salsa @ The Northridge Mall

Some might know me as the kind of person that always has money on him, Up until I purchased my dream car that was the case. I've been having to live the life of a typical teenager, asking money from my mom (Thanks so much mom) Therefore my recent reviews haven't been the most exquisite restaurants out there. Nonetheless, I had $10 on me so I was eating on a budget. I strolled through the northridge mall's food court. There weren't many options for a kosher mench like me, I decided to cool my hunger with quizno's but the line was soooo long. So I decided to go to La Salsa. "I'll have the california burrito and a pink lemonade" I said to the cashier, "Sorry sir, we don't have any pink lemonade" she responded. I looked at her with a furious glance and said "Water cup, please". As I was waiting for my order, I observed that this mall must have not had any remodeling done to it in decades, The "Gourmet Chinese Restaurant" was something straight out of miami vice, Various shades of pink, hideous letters, horrible outfits. But this La Salsa had a particular charm that nothing else in the food court had (I guess that's why I picked it). As I take my tray and find a seat (I try to stray as far away from guido guys as possible... Long story). I take a bite into this mystical burrito, sighing at the thought of having to eat La Salsa. As I am able to truly taste the food I think to myself, what a plain burrito I'm eating, beans rice and cheese. Nothing special, barely tamed my hunger.

OVERALL: MEDIOCRE EXPERIENCE!

Lea And Sally's Located @ Champs Charter High School

Today, I decided I wanted to go to school for a change. I normally indulge in a marvelous authentic Chinese style salad with sweet yet sour dressing crunched wantons and mandarins. I literally order this lunch every single day (rarely I decide to eat what's on "The food for the day" list). But today I was feeling a bit of change, so I decided to purchase a kosher hot dog. I look as she places the hot dog on the Styrofoam plate thinking to myself "Oh god, what am I doing!! What am I doing". She places a cookie, a bag of sun chips (Salsa, my favorite) and a side of re-fried beans (GROSS!!). As I put the onions and ketchup on the hot dog, I take a bite and my world turns upside down. Hands down the most delicious meal I've had in weeks! I stop myself and say "compliments to the chef", stroll off and finish my delicious lunch!

Pitfire North Hollywood

I was driving with my cousin after picking up my uncle from the airport trying to figure out where we were going to eat. My uncle is a fan of this restaurant called "Pitfire" so I said let's give it a try. As we walk in the restaurant, you can see the look of disappointment on my uncle's face as the cashier says "we're closed" (luckily he's a regular so they were able to make an exception). We order (my uncle recommends the macaroni & cheese). The cashier is very rude when I ask for her suggestion on lemonade she say's "It's just lemonade" (In the back of my mind I'm thinking, NO BITCH it's my favorite drink it's not just lemonade). We take our seats and she completely forgets to bring me it. The food finally arrives all in to go boxes because supposedly they can't use the dishwasher after 10 P.M, As I start eating the Mac&Cheese I taste how much salt they must have put in this disgusting attempt of a Mac&Cheese. I'M BETTER OFF EATING VELVETA!



OVERALL HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE.
