So we had a crazy idea for Labor Day weekend… let’s put on our own food tour of L.A! We decided we were going to try all new places we have never been before. Starting at 8:30am… and going through lunch… we *literally* ate our way across LA. Here we go…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We skipped the places we have been to before… the Abbott’s Pizza, Lamonica’s, Lemonades, Daikokuya’s…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Okay… there are a SLEW of Pupusa restaurants in this area so be sure you find the right one. We actually ended up at the wrong one, ate 2 pupusas before realizing the error but still made it to La Nueva Flor Blanca… which was definitely better. WHOOPS NOT THIS PLACE (even though it was pretty good too):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
