$1 Kuma


Went to Arcadia for dinner tonight and saw this cool store full of toy grabbing machines. Each try is $1.00 seems expensive but all the toys are very cute! They even have machines where you grab it IPad, LV purse, or Giant Hello Kitty. You might think it’s easy but it’s TOTALLY NOT! The bear I have on my hand, it only cost me $1.00. Yup! $1.00!!! Of course I didn’t win the toy myself, it’s with a friend’s wonderful help! Next time we shall go for the IPad!

Machi @ Arcadia


I heard about this restaurant from other’s website. Machi Fusion is also known as the Good Time Deli, the same owner opened this place up. I don’t like the furniture, their furniture looks like leftover pieces from IKEA. The seats are very uncomfortable, basic wooden benches with no padding whatsoever~ The service was extremely fast.

This place is not cheap at all but the food is decent. If you want Taiwanese food, here is a nice place to try. Last night 4 of us came here for dinner we spend $105 on it. Thank god mom paid for it..hehehe My photos are horrible this time, I think it’s time for me to buy a new camera~~~


Taiwanese Cabbage Soup $20 – Soup full of veggies & chicken. It’s really taste, but my mom makes it better

Black Beans With Oysters $13 – This dish is not bad… I can eat a whole bowl of rice with the sauce!


Sweet Sauce Pork Chop – Everyone loved this dish!!! Mom said it taste very much like Taiwan!

Satay 3 items $13 – this one not bad… inside there is chicken, intestine, and calamari

Taiwanese Melons Cooks in Crab Meat Sauce – They didn’t cook the melons long enough to be soft. The crab sauce is really nice tho. I ate most of my rice with the sauce!!! Yum~

Pan Fried Milk Fish $7 – I can do this too~~~~ Don’t order this in the future, just come over to my house and I can do it for you!

Coconut Bay @ Rowland Heights

This place has been in town for a long long time, but I never enjoy eating Thai food so never wanna try here. A friend took me here to try the GOOD Thai food. Thai food that’s not the typical Pad Thai or Tom Yum Soup. We ordered Garlic Pork Pot Rice, Spicy Beef Thai Noodles, Mango Sticky Rice, and black Thai Tea. Overall the restaurant is great place for get together!



This rest. used to be Sam Woo... Big restaurant but it was not full on Friday night. I guess business isn't as good as before~

Black Thai Tea...never know you can order Thai Tea without milk!!! It's so good! I can't drink milk so this is perfect for me! It does taste a little like ice tea from Taiwan.

Garlic Pork Pot Rice – Super good!!! Smell of fried garlic with pork oil…yum~ Extremely oil dish but the flavor is so tasty. I had some leftover I ate it for next morning’s breakfast~





Spicy Beef Thai Noodle - This is not spicy at all. I think Pho taste better~ For some reason it smells like Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup but taste totally different~



Mango Sticky Rice - I seen people order this so wanna try it out myself. Mmn, it's kinda weird. The white sauce is kinda salty. The mango is really sweet and soft.

Supatra's Thai Food

Found this restaurant by accident. My intern and I went out for a site visit one day and decided to eat something before heading back to the office. With the help of her internet phone & yelp.com we came here. This restaurant is located at a typical strip mall with typical exterior. Inside is pretty fancy tho. (Srprised~) I just ordered a Veggie Pad Thai and my intern ordered ginger chicken or something. Both meals came with soup or salad… soup soup please~ The soup looked kinda spicy and gross when the waitress brought it over to me. I didn’t wanna try it til my intern said it’s pretty good and it’s not spicy. Yup, she was right…it’s GOOD!




Typical strip mall rest.

Interior...pretty fancy

They even have a bar too!

Funky looking soup... looks spicy and gross but it was really good~

Veggie Pad Thai - tasted so so... a bit too sweet for my intern and I


Ginger chicken w/veggies - this dish is very good!!!! Spicy and flavorfull~
