So this year's Super Bowl spread will be In-N-Out burgers smothered in Cincinnati Chili. GO SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES!!! -G
He couldn't get quite enough time to throw at the end. Rams pinned their ears back. In the late 3rd / 4th quarter, the Niners squandered two promising drives at around the Rams 45-yard line and came away with 0 points. I think that was the killer. And Shanahan didn't have the guts to go for it on that 4th and 2.
Nope - Original Tommy's. In-n-Out is much more regionally diverse. Tommy's is strictly SoCal and its desert analogue (Vegas). Also - Cincinnati Chili is frequently served on a bed of spaghetti. It makes it easier to slide it from the pate to the trash...
Thanks for the info. I wonder if there's an Original Tommy's and Cincinnati Chili around here? In any case, I was really hoping instead to have sourdough bread & crab (perhaps alongside some cheese & brats), along with either Buffalo wings with blue cheese dip or midwestern BBQ ribs, but I suppose that none of those were in the cards.

Having grown up in a sea of hamburgers (we never saw bbq ribs or visited a barbecue place in KC) I fail to understand how hamburgers can be quintessentially Los Angeles. They are, unfortunately for everyone's health, a staple of many US diets. For LA, I would redirect you to Real Food Daily https://www.realfood.com/ -Southern California's premier organic, plant-based restaurant, serving a quality, authentic, creative, and nutritionally balanced menu. Since 1993, RFD has been a cherished destination where community happens around education, connection, and hospitality, over delicious, accessible food that's real. Organic, authentic, accessible -- that's the LA food vibe. If you must have a burger, there's always https://montysgoodburger.com/ or https://honeybeeburger.com/
You don't know the LA culture around Tommy's . It's not about "burgers", it's about Tommy's. Things have probably changed a lot since I was there though. The one we used to go to after gigs didn't have seats. It was just ringed with counters where you stood up and ate like farm animals .
I had not heard of Tommy's and I see most of their stores are in outlying areas. The LA I know is very oriented to healthy food and drinks, especially drinks. Need a $10 matcha latte or organic juice smoothie? They have you covered.
Prolly Westwood... I only ate at a Tommy's once - when my daughter was pursuing her undergrad degree - but still remember that impossible-to-eat burger and fries smothered in chili I had on the Tommy's on Colorado Ave. It was orgasmic...
I had the weirdest set of varied experiences in my time in LA as a NorCal native while going to college there. It was all over the place. Just these little vignettes stick in my mind. Riding my beat-up ten speed on Sunset Blvd (around Westwood) - very little shoulder and lots of displeased Porshe drivers, eating at a Spanish language tacqueria in east LA after band rehearsal, toiling around the non-descript ugliness of San Fernando Valley, smog over the ocean in Santa Monica. I remember how happy I was to move back to the Bay Area.
No, never go to Westwood or the west side at all. I lived in WeHo for about six weeks five years ago and go to LA fairly frequently (last month shooting a movie -- downtown, which I would not recommend to anyone). I like the Silver Lake area -- that's east a bit -- not pretentious and a lot of people and dogs. And Larchmont, which is the LA version of downtown Palo Alto. So I would say that there is no single LA -- it's a few hundred different places.
Sorry about that. I didn't mean to upset you. Perhaps I should just go San José and get a Togo's sandwich, even if it doesn't make much sense for this coming Super Bowl? GO SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES!!! -G
I spent years working in Santa Barbara and that health vibe is definitely the case there (how many different ways can you eat kale?). I've always been able to find a dive burger place any place I've traveled, however.
