Founded in 1917, the Grand Central Market has been dedicated to meeting the daily needs of Los Angeles Downtown residents. The earliest market was mainly fruit and vegetable shops and grocery stores. Nowadays, there are cafes and burger shops with hippie-style food canteens. I wonder if Los Angeles has witnessed the development of GCM or GCM has witnessed the continuous improvement of Los Angeles. Thanks to the visionary Ira Yellin, GCM's planner, for bringing such a large and lively food castle to the people of Los Angeles. The squad brought our customers to GCM recently to gather some styles. Here is our gourmet trip ~

Eggslut: Recommendation Index ♥♥♥
slut (steamed mashed egg with salted bread)
double cheese burger avocado

Eggslut is the most famous burger restaurant in the Grand Central Market. Its bacon egg-Kobe beef burger has been recommended by major media magazines. The squad went to eat this time and felt that it did not meet expectations.

Little pig: "Eggslut is something everyone thinks must go before departure. Because the burger in the ad picture is very attractive. So early I started waiting in line for my friends. During breakfast, we can only order it. It should be the sign The slut for breakfast. The slut is to put the mashed potatoes in a small glass jar, add an egg on top, steam until the half-boiled hot spring egg state, stir together when eating. The richness of the egg yolk is combined with the mashed potatoes, but there is no It's particularly brilliant, most of the time the salty mashed potatoes are just salty mashed potatoes, but they are more delicate. When it was time for lunch, I went to buy the double cheese burger we were looking forward to, and added avocado. Cut the burger and fry the beef to five minutes. Cooked, but not juicy. The only feature is probably the half-cooked omelette. The burger is slightly salty and dry. In n out won. The advertisement is too horrible."
Not spicy: "The steamed egg with mashed potatoes is very fragrant, and the burger taste can only be said to be ordinary, and it tastes better than selling."
Hanamaki: "But you're; compared to the gimmicky mashed potato steamed egg, I think eggslut's simple but tasteless burger is better. The entry-level artisan burger, although the ingredients are very basic, but the half-boiled egg does have new ideas. The addition of eggs and After the avocado, the overall taste is softer. It would be better if the beef has less salt."
Chloe is on the road: "The bread slices are crispy and the mashed potatoes are very fragrant. It's a good match when you put them on the bread slices."

GB:Recommendation Index ♥♥♥♥♥
ice latte
GB milk shake coffee milk shake
frizzy hoppy tea (carbonated black tea)
GB located on the extension of the square is a very popular cafe in GCM. Handwritten menus and customized coffee flavors make petty young people obediently buy. And the taste is pretty good, also captured a handful of food.

Little pig: "I don't drink a lot of milk shake, the aroma of coffee in the ice latte is not enough, and the coffee milk shake is sweeter. Black tea is refreshing."
Not spicy"I like to drink milk shake very much. The milk is sweet and fragrant, but it also guarantees the strong taste of coffee. It is rare!
frizzy hoppy tea is refreshing and suitable for summer. "
Hanamaki"The most impressive thing is the bubble black tea. Because there is no added sugar, it tastes like the soda water of Paris water. When the taste of each dish is strong and the sun is good, drinking iced tea is fine. Neutralize the intense heat."
Chloe is on the road"It's super delicious. The milk and coffee are both rich and sweet, and the sweetness is just right. Recommended! The frizzy tea is carbonated. I think it tastes a bit strange. Maybe it's because I haven't liked carbonated drinks."

McConnell's Fine Ice Cream:Recommendation Index ♥♥♥

salted caramel
Coconut almond chips
summer fruit

There are few dessert shops selling ice cream of various flavors.

Little pig: "I thought that the desserts were bought in advance. The three ice creams are rich in ingredients and complex in taste. Each of them is mixed with different ingredients. My friends always say that each of them has a mint aftertaste. , I didn’t notice it. I like the combination of coconut and almond. The milky aroma still has a crunchy texture."
Not spicy: "The ingredients are very rich"
Hanamaki: "It is suspected that my tongue is malfunctioning. I always think that the coconut flavored version has mint. This is the only ice cream shop in Grand Central. The taste is average. I don't like too small kernels. Fortunately, the flavors are relatively novel and the choices are also considered diverse. ."
Chloe is on the road"Salted Caramel is okay. It doesn't have the same taste as Talli Gelato. The latter is saltier and more fragrant. I like summer fruit. There are several kinds of fruit in it, sweet and sour, very refreshing."

Sticky rice:Recommendation Index ♥♥♥♥

chicken combo 

A well-known Southeast Asian restaurant, which makes delicious sauteed chicken.

Little pig"I ordered the satay-flavored chicken sticky rice. The chicken is grilled very tender, with a light spice flavor, but salty. The steamed glutinous rice is slightly dry. It might be affected if we wait until it gets cold before we start eating."
Not spicy: "Glutinous rice is delicious, but it's too stuffy"
Hanamaki: "The glutinous rice is too hard. The chicken is not bad."
Chloe is on the road: "The chicken is quite tasty, and it's quite tender, not bad."

Sarita's Pupuseria:Recommendation Index ♥♥♥♥
Pupusas (pie)

yuca con chicharron (fried plantain)

beef stew

This is a home-style restaurant that is popular with locals. There are many choices and the taste is kind and simple. It does n’t matter if you do n’t understand Mexican at all, facing this place, that place, and the same place where you can find the amazing meal.

Little pig"The tortillas are filled with minced pork and cheese. I really feel that foreigners shouldn’t have less salt. They are so salty that they forget the others (I have a weak taste). Beef stew is like a homemade vegetable beef soup, but it is similar to mint thyme. The spice flavor can't even suppress the coriander floating in the soup. The beef in the soup tastes like beef:). The fried banana is sweet with a slight sourness, which is quite greasy."
Not spicy"Pupusas pie is slightly salty, full of Momo's pride in tortillas. Fried plantain is a very delicious and very special dessert. The cabbage in beef stew is too big."
Hanamaki"Beef stew is considered a popular dish. Several men, women, and children eat lunch. Both the cooking method and the presentation are very simple and rough; the taste is homely with a touch of exotic (Mexican flavor)."
Chloe is on the road"Mexican version of the meat box. The tortillas are browned with meat filling, and a bite is full of oily juice. It is very fragrant! Two southern girls said it was too salty, I think it is just right. It looks good, the color is golden, it is not as sweet as bananas, it has a little sour taste, I like it. The beef stewed in the soup tastes good, and it is a Mexican dish very similar to our "Greater Chinese cuisine."

Horse Thief BBQ:Recommendation Index ♥♥♥♥

Pulled Pork

brisket
spare ribs
sweet potato casserole
slaw
chocolate banana pudding

The two BBQ restaurants opened by the people in Texas, hoping to bring this smoky, central Texas food to the people in Los Angeles. This store is the best store in GCM. There is a small outdoor square under the shade of the tree. Although the business hours are from 11 am to XNUMX pm, they will close early if they are sold out in advance.

Little pig"The hard dishes are all hard dishes, one pork and beef ribs. Looking around, people are all burgers, we are really sturdy foodies. The spare rib is tender and tender with oily stains, and the smoky flavor is very strong. That piece is very suitable. Pulled pork and brisket are not too old and taste moderate. The combination of sweet potato casserole and pecan is mixed with butter and roasted. The aroma is full, sweet but not greasy, which is the best today. The only shop in the store is A dessert chocolate banana pudding is instantly inferior to the comparison of mashed sweet potatoes, but the fusion of banana and chocolate is still very good. The overall level of this store is above."
Not spicy"Sweet potato casserole is delicious. It is roasted sweet potato and walnut kernels. It is an Asian combination. I have a pear flavor with slaw."
Hanamaki"The rib is splattered in one bite, and the beard and beer belly are the standard items for this dish. I got home in the afternoon and my fingertips are still smoky. The slaw is the kind of girly dreamy cream purple, but this The color used in the dishes looks a bit "dark cuisine". Another side dish, sweet potato casserole, is very grounded. Add sugar and butter and bake it with the walnut. It is not too much to eat directly as dessert. As for the authentic dessert chocolate Banana pudding is actually delicious. It would be perfect if the chocolate part was a little bitter."

Berlin Currywurst:Recommendation Index ♥♥♥
Paprika (pork, paprika, garlic) Currywurst

Purebred German sausages airlifted from Berlin to Los Angeles.
Chloe is on the road"German curry sausage is a fast food popular in Berlin. The sausage slices are added with tomato sauce and a large amount of curry powder. This strange combination brings an unexpected novelty, sour, sweet and spicy."

Abali Yogurt Drink (Mint)Recommendation Index ♥♥

Produced by a local yogurt factory in Los Angeles, it can be purchased at various exotic supermarkets.
Little pig: "The level of horror is comparable to a blockbuster movie. The unsweetened yogurt has a strong toothpaste holly flavor, which is not finished. It is salty holly. I think the toothpaste at home is so delicious, at least the toothpaste is sweet. Ah. Ah ah ah ah ah."
Hanamaki: "Fortunately, I didn't drink it."
Chloe is on the road"Can the mint-flavored salty yogurt be more exotic? The first bite is hard to accept, and it’s quite special to drink a few more sips. The "toothpaste flavor" described by classmate Hanamaki is very good. Those who like curious things can do it. Try it."

Because the weight is limited, we have no way to taste all of the Grand Central Market. Olio GCM Wood Fired Pizzeria, Valerie (Squad Review)Here) and Wexler' Deli (his family has oneExtremely delicious sinful drink) Are also small and famous shops. GCM does not have a restaurant that is so delicious, but it is rich in variety, diverse in cuisine, and not expensive! I do n’t know where to eat when I am walking around Downtown, it would be a good choice to come here to eat and eat.
