As you all know Aya loves to eat so it is no surprise that she also watches shows on the Food Network. I suppose she has worn me down as I too watch some of the Food Network shows. Some of our favorites is Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, The Best Thing I Ever Ate and Man v Food (which is on the Travel Channel).
Whenever we see a show and they visit an LA eatery we always say, “Maybe we should check it out some time.” Sadly, we usually don’t go but last week was the week before Aya goes back to work so we made it a point to go out and try a few of these places since we had the time.
Our first stop on your road trip: Oinkster in Eagle Rock.
Now I am no foodie, so there are no pictures of the food because I am so hungry I just want to eat my food NOT take a picture of my food. Oinkster specializes in Pastrami and brisket. Aya and I got each sandwich and split them both. The verdict…get the pastrami.
Is it as good as Johnnie’s Pastrami? Probably not. Now if I lived in Eagle Rock, I don’t think I would drive to Culver City for Johnnies when I could go to Oinkster but I might go to the Hat in Pasadena. Oinkster was probably a tad bit better than the Hat.
