I haven't done one of these for a bit, so here are a couple of things I saw this past weekend.
Smack'n Guamanian Grill Taking Over the Bann Bann Cutlet & Teriyaki Location:
Noticed this as I drove past the old Bann Cutlet & Teriyaki location on Miramar. In case you don't know; Bann has reopened in the new H Mart.
I'll miss Bann, but it looks like some Kelaguen is coming our way?

No Moa' Poke at Zarlitos:
I was hoping to grab some poke this past weekend so I drove down to Zarlitos, which I thought made some pretty decent poke, it had become a favorite of the Missus, and I enjoyed having a "Poke-silog" from time to time. First thing I noticed was a sign on the door announcing that Zarlitos was raising their prices. I walk in and quickly noticed no poke in the fridge and a sign that said there has been a management change and no more poke.
Looks like I'm going to have to work on a replacement.

And finally......
A Bit of "Snackage":
During my last trip to the SGV for an appointment; I stopped by Hong Kong Plaza, which has gone thru so many changes since we lived in the neighborhood in the late 90's. I quickly noticed how much HK Market had changed; especially the snack selection. So, when we recently drove up to the SGV for lunch (that post is coming soon), I convinced the Missus to drop by the market.
At first She wasn't too keen on the idea......but then
She saw the snacks and had a pretty good haul.
The salted egg fish skin is pretty heady stuff; deeply savory, and not cheap at almost ten bucks a package.
We did have a good time.....and because I was curious, I also got a bottle of the 3 year aged black vinegar ($8.29!!!) for my jiaozi as well.
While I was there, I actually saw a customer grab that bottle on the left, open the cap, and pop the tab to have a whiff. Sigh.....some things never change.
