What we ate during our trip to Solvang, San Diego, Anaheim and Los Angeles!

Chibiscus Tonkotsu Pork Broth Ramen and Char Siu Rice

During our trip to Solvang, San Diego, Anaheim (Disneyland!) and Los Angeles, we got the opportunity to try some fantastic cuisine. This will be a pictorial post with some information about where you’ll be able to find these stops if you’re doing a road trip on the West Coast of USA!

Pea Soup Andersen’s Solvang California

Besides the Pea Soup at Pea Soup Andersen’s that we’ve tried the last time round, we found out that the fried chicken was absolutely fantastic as well! The meat was juicy and tender while the skin added flavours to the overall taste. Not too oily as well. Fried Chicken perfection!

Cham Soot Gol

While visiting Knott’s Berry Farm, we stayed at Best Host Inn which was a short walking distance away to Cham Soot Gol – an all you can eat Korean BBQ joint! As we were not too hungry that evening, we settled with 3 dishes to share and they came with a variety of side dishes as well!

Opening Hours: 5pm to 12am (Extended hours on Sundays)

Chibiscus

Chibiscus was a surprising find that Kate chanced upon while looking to satisfy our Japanese food cravings. Although it was not the best in terms of taste, in terms of presentation and price, we’ve got to say that they’re definitely above average and much more than a “cafe that serves Asian fare”. Strongly recommended if you’re in town visiting Hollywood!
