MORE FOOD
My blog has been slowly turning into a food blog.
I will keep posting pictures of food... good or bad.
so we ate Korean BBQ on Sunday with Neems,Mousa, JP, Aska, and Chad.

Always good to eat in the hood.

Some salad to wash down all that grease and meat.

mmmm, miso paste with garlic and jalapenos
Today for lunch we went to Little Tokyo.
We decided to go to Hama sushi, I love that place.

But before we went in to eat at the spot, we saw a nice GKAE tag.

Red Snapper

Ankimo, monkfish liver. So good. Very rich though, Chad wants to eat this with some toast... uuhh... yea

The chef is very nice there, he hooked it up with some Taco (Octopus).
But this isn't the legs, this is part of the head. Very tough, but very good.

And our closer: Ume-shiso

Maaan... how hot is it today!?

Holding down the FFort.

Our good buddy Ray from Lionsden came to visit us this weekend.
He's gonna be re-locating his store soon, more updates on that later this month.

Our lil intern Christopher. This is how hard we work him. Anyone else interested?

Our lil secret tea spot.

So I've been eating meat again. I was eating only vegetables and fish for the past month. Sometimes I need meat. This was an Astro Avocado Burger.

Some good fries for your mind.

And the two people that bring you that daily dose of Foreign Family.

FFLIP THE SCRIPT
Today as I was making my rounds, I stopped by my friends store ESP.
ESP mainly carries their own brand called FLIP THE SCRIPT.
These guys have been around the street wear scene for over 12 years.
I remember seeing these guys in the street wear mags in Japan back in the 90's.
It's good to see that they are now expanding to America, and their first store is in Los Angeles, Downtown.

Right on the corner of Broadway and Olympic

The interior is super slick. You can see the collaboration shirt we did with them on the left mannequin.

clean!

Jeans for dayz.

high grade cut and sew products.

select watches and accessories.

The two people responsible for the Los Angeles Flagship store. Mie-san and Kawabe-san.
They are having their grand opening on April 15th!
Check it out!
ESP
1029 S. Broadway
Los Angeles, CA. 90015

Having a hard time trying to quit smoking?
well try this. it worked for me.
My friend Robert just came back from his Southeast Asia tour and brought back some cigarettes for me. At first glance I was like "o thanks man", and then I realized what was on the cover of these cigarette packs: they were aftermath pictures of cigarette lead cancers (like holes in necks, black lungs, melted lips,etc) . Made me drop my habit in one second, not to mention my appetite.

Imagine these cigarettes in the states. I believe at least 30% of the smokers would quit. But as long as the cigarette companies continue to feed the US government, that'll never happen.
On a lighter note: Our Sprummer line just dropped at digitalgravel.com

the inner lining of our hats.
have a good weekend!
