The pho gods were not happy. In fact they were down right wrathful for the lack of authenticity; from the lack of 5 spices to cilantro instead of basil.

Casita Taco De Carbon
11300 No. 1 Magnolia Blvd,
North Hollywood, CA 91401
I had the "Gourmet" Grand Burrito al Pastor. A true burrito will have different cuts of meats and will not be filled with lettuce, nor use a lousy chipotle sauce to cover how bad it is.
There is better:

San Ma Ru Korean Restaurant
18111 Saticoy Street
Reseda, CA 91335
I like this Korean joint its not as commercial as the Tofu House across the street. Its real mom and pop type of home cuisine I really enjoy.
I had their spicy squid over rice. Really spicy through every bite. Too bad I couldn't get a take-out menu. But I would go back just to try other dishes.

India Sweets & Spices
18110 Parthenia St Northridge, CA 91328
I was looking to buy a bag of basmati rice and some curry spices. I got more than expected. They have a deli that serves cooked food along with sweets.
Sauce for the fritters. Like a sweet, hot, spicy, pickle sauce with a tang of vinegar.
Sweet tamarind sauce.
Curried potato and aubergine. Bland-could have added more curry and gone spicy hot.
Fritter. Hardly any filling. Just mostly flaky pastry shell.
Fritter filled with a mashed potato and spinach. So so for me, but I'm still curious about all the other food items in the store. I think I'll do another visit...

101 Noodle Express
1408 E Valley Blvd
Alhambra, CA 91801
We had the popular Shadong style beef roll. It lived up to its reputation as being a Chinese burrito. Crisp and flaky on the outside, meaty and tasty on the inside with cilantro, sesame seed, sesame oil and bits of jalapeno. Also we tried the hot and spicy beef noodle soup. The beef was nicely braised and fatty. The noodles al dente. We also tried the shrimp and pork dumplings and the bok choy, pork, and shrimp dumplings. Certainly worthy of future visits.

Island Pacific - 7/3/11
20922 Roscoe Blvd
Canoga Park, CA 91304
Avoid the fried calamari and fried bangus. Also the fried dilis (fried herring). The taste of these food items is very fishy, indicating they have not changed their oil in quite a while. But if rancid oil is your thing, don't let me dissuade you.
The only saving grace was the hopia baboy. Flaky on the outside, yet firm and sweet on the inside.

The only saving grace was the hopia baboy. Flaky on the outside, yet firm and sweet on the inside.
