If you like noodles (especially Udon) and curry, like I do, then it’s only natural that you try the Cury Udon at curry house.  Mmmmm.  It doesn’t get much better than this. Curry House 123 S. Onizuka St. #204, Los ...

Izayoi Restaurant is located on the side of the Office Depot in Little Tokyo.  You can park for free at the Office Depot parking lot.  Although the building and styling is brand new, the food here is old school Japanese ...
