Special... Not on the menu: Pescado Saltado... $12.25. I got mine with a fried egg. YUM!
The Lamb. Anything with Lamb. Must I repeat myself? Get some Lamb. I spoke with the man himself (Papa Cristo) and he explained that you cannot find lamb properly cooked anywhere else! Just try it.

They give out donut samples, lots of them. The Spicy Fried Chicken sandwich is a great start to the day if you feel like skipping the egg sandwiches. It's not too spicy and the chicken is perfect.

Absolutely no sign out front, you just have to look for the neon art in the window front.
The firebird had a juicy, slightly oily, and crisp fried chicken thigh. Supposed to be spicy, but was very weak to me. Excellent French onions topping added a lot to the sandwich. 3.75/5
Went in to grab some doughnuts (which were very good) but the sight of the chicken breakfast sandwich pulled me in. I am now a fan. Who knew fried spicy chicken would be so good in the morning.

The best birria de res tacos! Find the truck next to the rail tracks off Slauson.

Great and challenging ride from Furnace Creek. At least 15 degrees cooler than valley floor so bring a jacket-unless it's Summer.
Lowest point in the Lower 48 states. Hot as hell!!! 🔥🔥🔥 It's a flat walk as long as you want to make it. Honestly, better to see from Dante's View (above and behind the parking lot).
Better time for visiting is early morning before sunrise or in the evening with moon.
Gorgeous place! Tours are avaliable, reserve it in advance online. Also, check out the exhibit, interpretive center, and gift shop. The day we went they also had a snack bar, with pizza for the kiddo.
My favourite matcha soft serve. Strong matcha flavour and very creamy
Curry was tasty. Mochiko chicken was good with the sauce. Happy fried chicken was the bomb! Fried pork chop were delish!
Go strawberry picking. You get a tractor tour and get to eat fresh veggies. The kids keep talking about the yellow broccoli flowers. They were really good.
Don't forget to order their charcoal rib eye steak & nankotsu karaage. If they have the uni sashimi as a special you MUST get that too. An authentic Japanese izakaya. Seriously, a hidden gem.
The raw fresh Uni is great! Only come here if you like Uni, there isn’t much else on the menu
