Freshly baked and then packed in that box for portage to take home.

Exactly. I just got a dozen so as to try 12 different flavors since it was my first time there. :)

How many flavors do they have? Any really weird ones?

I think there were at least 12 flavors...I don't know about weird, but they had some seasonal flavors like passion fruit.

Finally got around to trying the much-hyped Five Guys Hamburger today... In 'n" Out is still better, I think, though Five Guys French fries are considerable better than In 'n' Out's: they're cooked more thoroughly and are crisper. :victory:

Dude. That is such a coincidence. I tried them out for the first time about 2 weeks ago. Overrated burgers. In n' Out is way better but I agree Five Guys fries are much better, in terms of taste and texture.

Admittedly, I ordered a burger with the works (grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, along with the regular condiments), so they might've overpowered the burger itself. :doh:

Hmm...again I had a similar experience. I had the grilled onions as well along with tomato, ketchup, mustard, and lettuce. The onions were sweet like a Vidalia onion, which I don't really care for on a burger. It wasn't a bad burger but for me despite all the fixin's I think the taste of the beef is what sets the In n' Out burger apart.

I doubt I will be going back again...you probably went to the one in Carson. I went to the one in Cerritos.

Nope, I went to the one in Cerritos today... Across the parking lot from Target. :mrgreen:

Yeah, I remember the Fedco as well. :mrgreen:

According to my brother, a new ramen place will be opening soon, across the street where the Lucille's is on South Street. :victory:

I'm sure it'll pop up on the food blogs. I'll check it out when it opens it's doors. :) Heck I went to Ramen Jinya in Studio City and that's a bit of a trek.

I'm sure I'll be checking it out as well, since my brother essentially lives around the corner, near the Cerritos Auto Square. :victory:

Oh right on. There's a Beard Papa's location right around there.

Their cream puffs are quite good... Rich, but good. :victory:

The strawberry ones were disappointing, though: I expected a strawberries AND cream filling, not a strawberry cream filling. :sweat:

I like the regular and green tea ones. Yeah, definitely not an everyday thing.

For sure.

I always need to reach for a glass of water after eating one of those things. :sweat:

I see your point. I had a smaller version of this choux creme pastry in Osaka. A bit more manageable I'd have to say.
