Guest guest Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 Thanks Donna @LA #2! Information on mushrooming would be nice. Perhaps even around my neck of the woods, near the Sam Merrill trail. It is supposed to rain a few days.... I would like to hear about the Nepalese restaurant, but I think it is the one on Holly near the corner with Raymond? if it is so it is not vegetarian (but might have some good veggie dishes?) I was not impressed with Luna Negra, it is not real Spanish food, and I much prefer my own cooking! I like going out to restaurants of any Asian persuasion, I do not do so well there in my own kitchen, besides new Asian ideas for veggie food are always nice. There is a fast food restaurant called Orean, on Lake near the 210. It is cornered with other fast food joints, but Orean is vegan and pretty tasty. Maybe not so nice for a group outing, but great to know if you are in the area and happen to be hungry.... cabrita @ los angeles , Donna Ellis <tupelopm wrote: > > Hi Cabrita, > > I'm familiar (geographically) with both areas and have > been to each.
