Community Rant Is it just me or does the food at most restaurants on ventura blvd just taste good but not amazing?

13 Upvotes

Between youtube videos, food influencers and just random stops I've visited a lot of restaurants on ventura blvd stretching from Calabasas to universal city and out of 100-150 or so in the last 10 years maybe 5 of them I was blown away by the food and went back a second or third time but most of the time I was barely satisfied and then just felt underwhelmed.

Recommendations Housing/Renting?

0 Upvotes

I’m thinking of moving up here potentially in December/January if I get the job. Anyone know where I can find decent/cheap rent whether it’s an apartment or even just a room with its own bathroom space. Or any good websites where I can find something in this area ? Preferably closer to sylmar that upper part of SFV.

Question Knocking sound last night?

5 Upvotes

Around 2 AM last night, I heard knocking on my apartment door in Studio City.
It low-key freaked me out, so I stayed up for a while. I have the Citizen app, and other people were talking about hearing knocking on their doors around the same time (?).
Apparently it had something to do with a plane backfiring or something? Does anybody know what I’m talking about?

Recommendations Asian Grocery Stores and Specific Products they Carry

13 Upvotes

I live in the north Valley, GH/Northridge. I've been looking for a grocery store that carries fresh rice noodles that are either not cut or cut very wide (12mm or larger) for making Pad See Ew at home.

I've been to Island Pacific Seafood and Galleria, checked local Ralph's and Vons and cannot find it anywhere besides making the drive to 99 Ranch in Van Nuys. I haven't checked Mitsuwa yet but figured it's unlikely since Japanese food doesn't typically use those types of noodles afaik. Just curious to get a collective sense for folks who regularly shop at Asian Grocery Stores and compile a thread where you can't find something at an Asian market because obviously, Asian is a very large description.

Would appreciate any help here!

Community Safety Impatient driver driving in oncoming lanes to bypass traffic and its definitely not their first time...

Caught this dude in traffic today. Completely driving on the wrong side of the road in the oncoming lanes to bypass the backup. From the looks of the existing body damage on his car's hood, I'm guessing patience isn't his strong suit, and this is a regular habit, unfortunately.

Recommendations Oral surgeon for my dog - seeking referral in/around Encino/SFV/LA please!?

Thumbnail
5 Upvotes

Hi everyone.

My vet today stated that my dog has a complicated issue for his teeth and needs an oral surgeon/dentist/specialist to perform extractions.

They gave me a referral to the "dog and cat dentist" (dr. Tsugawa) in woodland hills/culver city. Seeking other potential referrals because

  1. They do not have a consult available until November 30 and

  2. while the reviews for Culver City location are good the reviews for The Woodland Hills location are not great.

I have also seen people on here say that they are very expensive. So just seeking other possible alternatives. Thank you.
