My New Year's Resolution for 2009

Yes, I know.

There is always a list by the end of the year that commemorate a "best of" or "worst of" the year. Well, I'll get to those list later, but for now I want to share on the places that I want to visit next year.

You can call it a mission statement list and I call it my New Year's resolutions. I hope to visit these places as many as possible. If not, all of them.

  1. Totoraku Teriyaki House Pico (West LA)

  3. La Casita Mexicana (Bell)
  4. Massimo (Beverly Hills)
  5. Gordon Ramsay at London (West Hollywood)

Hi Hana,

It's not really a ranking of a list, but very random order. I definitely being aching to try Sushi Zo, but can't really go on their weekday lunch and dinner is sort of what I'm shooting for.

Tacos El Gordo? OK, that is something I'm very interesed. Thanks! I am shocked you didn't pimped King Taco. :P

Hi Exile Kiss,

If I can do it, it'll be miracle. I'm hoping just scratch a few of those off my list though. Wish me luck!
