    Yoshinoya Beef Bowl

    I like the Yoshinoya Beef Bowl but never figured out what "thinly sliced" beef they used (or is similar to it) until I went into the Zion Korean market on Irvine Blvd and Yale and bought some sliced CAB (Certified Angus Beef) beef brisket with fat. Turns out the sliced beef brisket is perfect...

    Where to buy uncooked fish collars and bellies?

    Toll Freeways

    I've never used the toll roads in California, 241 or 261. In the east coast, they have actual manned toll booths, but I'm assuming the 241 and 261 are all electronic. How do I use them? If I just go on them will I get a ticket? What if I just go on them once or twice a year, can I pay per use?

Of course, foreclosures sales do the same. However, these fire sales are a new...
