This is an unusual place to get something good to eat. It's an itsty bitsy place inside a liquor store in Redondo Beach in the corner of Catalina and Diamond. My hairdresser told me to just Go! She raved about the braised short ribs on a bun with carmelized onions. Right after my hair cut; I went!
They had all sorts of sandwiches and burgers; all looked appetizing. I was about to order the short ribs when the Crisped Chopped Soft Shell Crab caught my eye. While waiting for my order, I studied the menu board and learned about the truffle parmesan. Obviously, I had to order that. There was no place to eat unless I wanted to eat it in my car or go to the beach which was right there. I decided to eat it at home. I prayed that no cops would be around as I dashed home hoping the sandwich would still be warm.
When I opened the box, I saw this interesting and exciting "thing". A soft pan demie roll with crunchy soft shell crab with a bunch of tiny balls. The sauce they had was so delicious and spicy. This was the best sandwich I've had in a loooong time. I usually don't consider sandwiches real food until yesterday. I immediately called them up and spoke with the owner to ask what was in that sandwich. The tiny balls were called bubu arare which are crispy rice crackers; the secret to the wonderful flavor was their thai crab mayo! The truffle fries were also very good though I prefer my fries not too crispy to be able to really savor the potato.
It would be a good idea to call in your order so you don't have to stand too long, but for first timers.....the stand is worth the wait!
This looks soooogood. You always find the best places.
