Formerly Underground+Illegal Restaurant/Kitchen gone legit?!? ;p
Hey you (yeah, all 3 of you’z),
Please feel free to make some silky sweet LOVE to your mouth c/o the dineLA CITRUS SESAME SILKY TOFU cause YOU deserve it! (at least most of you do.. but we’re not judging LOL ;D)
Avail at both lunchie-munchies and (Thurs+Fri night) Din-Dins til Feb 3rd- just in case you needed that additional plug and were wondering, “hmmmm SK, but WHEN can I eat it?!?!” See, we’re thoughtful.. well at least some of the time.

Happy @dine_LA #NewWaveWingWeds !!
Ok, it’s NORMALLY #NewWaveWeds ,but can you think of a better way to enjoy yer BURMESE GALANGAL CHICKEN WINGS than with… NEW WAVE!! I can’t (ok, maybe I could but it’s ANOTHER pleasant way to enjoy ‘em)
If you haven’t had these yet, there are INCREDIBLY savory and so FUCKING excellent over rice… OMFG (“think not sexy Burmese chicken wing thoughts.. think not sexy Burmese chicken wing thoughts!”)
(deep breath)
Ok, I’m alright now. Now all we needs is some Pet Shop Boys “Suburbia” with these WAAAAANGS to make it all better. Enjoy!
Ok, I’m definitely better now… CHICKEN WAAAAAAAANGS! (maybe not ^_^)

Have you ever had a Silky Smooth “Slow Jammin” Tofu that just made you think…
“Oooooh man I really feel like taking it down a couple of notches and listenin’ to some smooth soft rock, and continually making sweet love to my… mouth right now with this tofu.”
You have??? WOW, I think I was the only one (see, I’m not a COMPLETE weirdo… am I?!?!)
Well then, the dineLA CITRUS SESAME SILKY TOFU is JUST for you smooth tofu lovers out there (and for the masses too. you don’t HAVE to feel like that to enjoy it’s bright+zesty silky smooth-liciousness! ;D)
So “dive in” and join us for dineLA, and please be prepared to be… “Lost in Love” with all it’s deliciousness (and be prepared for this song below too… LOL it’s so hilariously AWESOME!! And btw, I DO love Air Supply.. don’t hate me cause I’m beautiful and their songs are too!!! GWAAAAAAAA ^_^)
Dudes, watch this video.. especially when for the scene when we’re whisked away to a far off space cloud (w/ appropriate sound effect!) AWWWWESOME!
Happy dineLA ”diving” and/or eatin’ y’all!

Happy #NewWaveWeds AND #SOPASucksAss day too! (SEE.. #SOPASucksAss so much it gives me and one of my many pervy ‘staches a sad face like above!!)
If you don’t know what SOPA is and why it “sucks ass,” why not check out this convenient Google link HERE for more info (and maybe even sign the petition so my blog of 3-4 readers are never deprived of me embedding cool New Wave videos like “In a Big Country” by.. umm… BIG COUNTRY!)
“In a BIG country.. they don’t deprive you of your internet TOMFOOOOOLEEEERY!”
(that’s at least how I’m singing it in my head today)
Aside from that, it’s a lil nippy outside so why not come to SK to get some.. BEER! PINEAPPLE BEER CHICKEN WING SOUP that is. ^_^ Plus that’ll show ‘em in Congress what you really think… well after you get a lil hammered and tell ‘em what you REALLY think about SOPA and it’s bastard cousin PIPA!
And if none of that matters to you and all you want is some FLAVA in yo’ mouth (that’s alright, I get where you coming from) do not deny yourself the opportunity to try THE VIETNAMESE MINCED BEEF-TACULAR!! OMG, it’s SOOOOOO good (and glad to hear that many that have tried it think the same too.. *phew*)
Btw, don’t forget 
start’s next week too (and THE VIETNAMESE MINCED BEEF-TACULAR gets a FRIED EGG version JUST for dineLA too! ^_^)
Ok, that’s it for today. And for any new readers that made it here (mainly because you couldn’t onto WikiPedia because of the #SOPABlackOut I’m sure LOL), WELCOME CHOCKOS! :D
Xoxo,
TEAM SK
Come get you some @dine_LA -liciousness at lunch.. or at DIN-DINS TONIGHT+TOMORRAH FRIDAY NIGHT!!! J’YEEEEEEEEAH!
(and yes, dineLA at Din-Dins makes me feel so warm inside that I just want to laydown in a warm+cozy fetal position and just dream about all thems deliciousness in my mouf.. is that weird? MAYBE. am I crazy? I don’t think so! ^_^)
Xoxo,

Please enjoy some SK prerequisite #ChickenWANGPorn : the @dine_la Braised Burmese Galangal Chicken Wiiiiiiings (so damn TASTAY! ^_^) (Taken with instagram)
UPDATE: it’s cold as BALLS out there.. use this map to come get you some dineLA-liciousness and/or PINEAPPLE BEER CHICKEN WING SOUP!!! It’s helpful, we promise ^_^
(cue sound of fireworks p-p-POPPING)
HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR (of the Dragon!) & 2nd day of @dine_LA too (even though it’s technically SK’s 1st day since we’re not open on Sundays.. but you get what we mean ^_^)
And what TWO (‘cause we’re Asian and all about “value” in the house of SK LOL) better ways to bring in the dineLA Dragon Lunar Chinese New Year than:
…or you could bring it in w/ a FRIED EGG on top of some VIET MINCED BEEF-TACULAR (feel free to allow your eyes to be distracted by the EGG above at this time ^_^) and/or other dineLA deliciousness too like the LYCHEE PANNA COTTA w/ SALTED PLUM SAUCE “oooOOOOoooh!” That would work just fine too.
Alrighty, time to get DRAGON (and/or dineLA) CRAZY in this Lunar New Year y’all… See ya! (unless you’re passed out like I am in this “drunken dramatization” below :D)
Xoxo,
TEAM SK
PS-oh yeah, the menu stays the same for the next two weeks since we’re doing dineLA too. I mean, if that’s cool with you (cause we’re gonna be doin’ that way regardless.. suckas! ;P)
“HELLO.. is it Din-Dins / NOM NOM PORK / or our @dine_LA menu you were LOOKING FOOOOOOOR!?!”
(shout out to our buddy Hai Tran for allow us to Facebook “stalk” him and find this pretty remarkably edited video.. PRETTY COOL people.. pretty cool! ^_^)
Btw, NOM NOM PORK is Din-Dins tonight+tomorrow night ONLY!
Xoxo,
TEAM SK
PS- don’t forget, like diamonds, CRISPY TOFU BALLS are FOREVER (well, FOREVER on the menu that is ;D)
dineLA.. @dine_LA ..DINE LA!! (actually begins next week, Jan 23rd to Feb 3rd… but why not get excited now, right??)
(Pssssst- we WILL be serving this menu at Dinner too during dineLA, and please don’t be alarmed if you see dinner listed somewhere else online @ $28 since our food is not THAT expensive. Our Din-Dins dineLA menu will remain at $16+tax! ^_^)
So while you’re enjoying your Japanese Garlic Noodles, VIET MINCED BEEF-LICIOUSNESS & the now eternally served (aka FOREVER) CRISPY TOFU BALLS for a lil lunchie-munchies this week, why not consider SK’s 4th run at dineLA Restaurant week conveniently startin’ next week folks (with all sorts of seemingly clever verbosity and pretty pictures below ;D).
And if you don’t know, the way it works is:
Voila.. you gots a MEAL! (ok, enough jibba-jabba, onto more pictures “foo!” haha)
APPETIZERS!
Have you ever yearned for that delectably delicate dish you just wanna share with someone special while listening to some smooooooth love songs (you know which station I’m talkin’ about y’all!), well look no further because this just might be that one for you. OH YES! It’s so silky smooth with a lil citrus zest “here,” a lil sesame leaf puree “there” to satiate your appetite before the possibility of “you making love.. outta nothing at all” (we’re just sayin’ ;D)
A classically delicious Chinese dish w/ hand-wrapped wontons (oh yeah, we do that) filled w/ sake+sesame marinated ground pork in cute lil wonton morsels pleasantly swimming in a lightly sweet+spicy+f’ing SAVORY (but simply) delicious chili oil mixture. It’s a classic for a reason (i.e. it’s frickin’ GOOD.. and like wonton-CRACK!)
Unlike the (kinda crappy) cabbage eggrolls most of America has gotten used to from the “A,B, and/or C “variety of take-out Chinese across the US, Vietnamese Eggrolls pack a LOT of punch and FLAVA! Inside each lil roll we have: ground pork, ground shrimp, taro, carrots, vermicelli, cilantro, mushrooms and then marinated+seasoned. (now it sounds like an SNL commercial) Then it’s served w/ fresh BUTTER lettuce (thems the “good stuff”), mint & pickled carrots+daikon to wrap with, and the obligatory housemade Vietnamese fish/dipping sauce FTW (aka “for the win”)
ENTREES (O’LE!)
OK, it’s not an actual traditional Burmese dish (and let’s also forget that “technically” Burma is now Myanmar, but who cares ‘cause it’s still another home of Asian deliciousness!) The Kitchen Ninja decided to take the Burmese flavors she’s super in love with (galangal/young ginger, kaffir leaves, coco milk) and combine them into a flavor super power w/ her ultimate culinary love+obsession: CHICKEN WAAAAANGS! And whatchu get you ask: frickin’ “finger lickin” flavor. (which is all we really want from our food, right?? ^_^)
You want flavor? We GOTS yo’ flavor right here in a minced Angus (yup, I said Angus) beef chuck smothered in all sorts of “secret” ingredients *cough* lemongrass, Thai chilis, Viet Nuoc Mam/fish sauce & curry *cough* topped w/ cucumbers, chopped mint, crispy ass fried shallots and then finally topped w/… BAM an ooze-licious FRIED EGG FTMFW (you know what’s up y’all!)
We take our favorite unusual, green & un-sweet exotic fruit and braise that mo’fo in a super savory combo of soy sauce, rice vinegar and Coca Cola to make a “meaty” Vegan dish unlike any other (and yes, it’s VEGAN+tasty!)
DESSERTSIES
One of more well known Asian fruits out there enjoyed by all.. or at least most (but did you know eating 9 Lychees would meet an adult’s daily recommended Vitamin C requirement.. it’s on Wikipedia and it’s true we tell ya!) We take the strong sacchrine sweetness of the Lychee, make a nifty Panna Cotta w/ that sucka and then top it w/ a little salty-sweetness to CUT (“hiYA”) that powerful lychee for some tantalizing tastebud bliss (because all our tastebuds deserve tantalizing bliss from time-to-time ;D)
If coconuts could consumate their perfectly delicious relationship w/ the aromatic+green pandan leaf (definition below if you dunno what pandan is ^_^) while on holiday in let’s say…ITALY, we’d like to think THIS twist on the classic italian cream dessert could happen (with a lil bit of South-east Asian fruit on top for good measure too of course)… and now with (Meyer’s) RUM Banana Jam.. “HUZZAH!”
Pandan is like the South East Asian version of vanilla, and we take the extract of the leaf to make our very own flan that we make creamier (i.e. less “egg-y”) and slightly more aromatic resulting in complete green deliciousness (that’s o’ so SMOOTH!)
And there you have it. For the lone person that has actually read this far… HOORAY! You get a gold star (or at least a breath mint if we have any left by the time you stop by).
See ya in soon.
Xoxo,
TEAM SK
