I'm trying to find out good dinner deals on the Eastside so I don't spend three days in traffic (Los Feliz, EP, Silverlake, Atwater, even Glendale). I'm looking for Tuesday night (um, yes, that's tonight, but it could also be next week). If you know of great deals on other nights, feel free to post too. Thanks!

Seems the eastside is a little less into the weekly promotions than the westside, though... Another dinner deal (also in Hollywood) on Monday nights, is the prix fixe at Lou - 3 courses paired with 5 wines for $55. Definitely not super cheap, but good for a special occasion or if you're a wino:) Wed Oct 01 11:25:11 -0700 2008 4058863 228120 sprockets 1 4059170 If you go a few miles west of where you want (in Hollywood) I think Citizen Smith on Cahuenga and Selma has a Tuesday night deal.

If you're looking for the best Chinese food in the LA area, the SGV is just a short drive away. Wed Oct 01 11:50:28 -0700 2008 4056643 17644 raytamsgv 2 4077632 Thanks raytamsgv and SilverlakePhil! As for the LA Chinese food - I usu go to Yang Chow - love their slippery shrimp - but if you know of a much better spot that's not super far, lemme know. Thu Oct 02 13:54:47 -0700 2008 4074774 228120 sprockets 3 4080041 There are an unbelievable number of Chinese restaurants in the SGV as well as many different regional cooking styles. Please check my reviews and guide to Chinese restaurants in the SGV: http://www.geocities.com/raytamsgv/chinese_restaurants.html Fri Oct 03 13:48:23 -0700 2008 4077632 17644 raytamsgv 1 4075410 Mako Mondays returning to Gingergrass: http://www.gingergrass.com/htm/gg_menu_makomon.htm Wed Oct 01 16:19:33 -0700 2008 4056643 215207 SilverlakePhil 1 4078052 Restaurant 15 in Echo Park has a special 3-course deal, $19 @ 15 (used to be $15 @ 15...damn crappy economy). It's available every day from 5pm to 6:30pm, if you don't mind eating a little on the early side. Unfortunately I haven't been their even though it's in my hood, but I've seen some fairly good reviews (burger is supposed to be especially tasty). Thu Oct 02 16:36:19 -0700 2008 4056643 209788 2surly
